Amendment to MKA Rally Obedience Rule 2.7
The MKA has agreed to relax Rule 2.7 requiring a dog which has obtained two (2) Novice certificates to move up & be able to do the next level i.e. the Advanced A level. The two certificates can be from the same judge or two (2) different judges.
Rationale for this relaxation is because the MKA is not able to invite as many judges over for MKA Rally trials and thus when a Rally judge is invited, the judge will be able to judge two (2) trials on the same day, at two separate trials. Novice certificates obtained from the same judge but at different trials organised for the day will be allowed to be counted as having met the conditions for advancement to the next level.
Notwithstanding this relaxation, a participant will still be allowed to secure two (2) Novice certificates from two (2) different judges before moving to the next level, if he/she so decides.
Please also take note that the following rules have been modified due to typographical errors.
