Competition & Utility Obedience

The Utility class, which includes scent discrimination, directed retrieves, jumping and silent signal exercises, is the most challenging class. In the Utility class, dogs earn a Utility Dog (UD) title after receiving three qualifying scores under two different judges. 

Exercises to be taught include:

  • Signal exercise
  • Scent discrimination
  • Directed retrieve
  • Moving stand and exam
  • Directed jumping

Equipment needed:

  • 6-foot leash (leather or fabric, comfortable in your hand)
  • An appropriate collar for training purposes (Note: Pinch collars or harnesses are not allowed during competition in Novice, Open, or Utility Obedience.)
  • Small, soft training treats and/or toy

Prerequisites: Dogs must have successfully completed the Intermediate Obedience and/or have the instructor's recommendation prior to enrollment.  Handlers must be 16 years or older.
