Bluegrass Classic Dog Shows - September 2 - 6, 2021 - 7BEST BRED BY EXHIBITOR IN SHOW COMPETITION
ALL FIVE DAYS!!
The Bluegrass Classic is proud to offer Best Bred by Exhibitor in Show Competitions in honor of our Breeder/Owner/
Handlers. Our Sport would not be what it is without your dedication and hard work in the whelping box.
This competition will be open to the winners of the Bred by Exhibitor classes and any dogs in the Best of Breed/Variety
competition shown by their breeder/owner. To be eligible for Bred by Exhibitor the appropriate box on the entry
form must be checked unless the dog or bitch is entered in the Bred by Exhibitor class. Professional handlers
MUST be the breeder/owner of record. During the course of regular judging, the assigned judge will select a Best Bred
by Exhibitor in each breed/variety from the Bred by Exhibitor class winners and eligible Best of Breed entrants. This will
be done after Best of Breed/Variety competition unless the Best Bred by Exhibitor award is automatic. Example: an entry
from the Bred by Exhibitor class is awarded Best of Winners or Best of Breed/Variety. Only dogs/bitches undefeated in
a Bred by Exhibitor class are eligible for the Best Bred by Exhibitor Competition. If the first place winner is not present,
the second place winner may not compete. Best Bred by Exhibitor Winners will go on to compete in their respective
groups for First through Fourth. The First Place winners of the Bred by Exhibitor Group Competition will then compete
for Best Bred by Exhibitor in Show.
Professional Handlers are eligible to compete PROVIDED they have bred and own the dog they exhibit.
There will be no additional fee for this competition. Dogs must be handled by their breeder/owner.

Bluegrass Classic Dog Shows - September 2 - 6, 2021 - 9AKC NATIONAL OWNER-HANDLED SERIES
(Remember to check the box near the bottom of the entry form)
The AKC National Owner-Handled Series is a non-titling competition for dogs that are exhibited
by their owners that are not professional handlers.
Exhibitors must declare their dog is Owner-Handled eligible at the time of entry on the entry
form. Dogs entered in the Amateur-Owner-Handler class will automatically be marked as eligible
to compete in the NOHS. Eligible dogs will be identified by an asterisk in the judge’s book,
steward’s book & the catalog. Dogs must be handled throughout the breed level competition
for the regular show by an eligible owner. Professional handlers*, household members
and current assistants** to professional handlers may not exhibit the dog in any NOHS
competition during the entire show.
Owner-Handled Best of Breed will be selected from the dogs that are eligible to compete in
the Best of Breed competition including Winners Dog, Winners Bitch and winners of the non-
regular classes.
• If the Best of Breed/Variety winner is Owner-Handled competition eligible, it will automatically
be Owner-Handled Best of Breed/Variety and be eligible to compete in both the regular as
well as the Owner-Handled Group.
• If the Best of Breed/Variety winner is not eligible for Owner-Handled competition and the
Best of Opposite Sex to Best of Breed/Variety is eligible, the Best of Opposite Sex to Best
of Breed/Variety will compete against the eligible exhibits of the other sex to determine
Owner-Handled Best of Breed/Variety.
• If neither the Best of Breed nor the Best of Opposite Sex to Best of Breed/Variety are
Owner-Handled competition eligible and Select Dog & Select Bitch are both eligible, the
judge is to choose Best Owner-Handled exhibit from the Selects and eligible Winners Dog
or Winners Bitch.
• If one of the Selects is eligible, excuse all Champions and non-regular class winners of the
same sex and then choose Best Owner-Handled exhibit from the remaining dogs of the
opposite sex including the eligible Winners.
• If Best of Breed, Best of Opposite Sex to Best of Breed, Select Dog & Select Bitch are not
eligible, the judge may choose any eligible dog remaining in the ring including Winners Dog
or Winners Bitch as Owner-Handled Best of Breed/Variety.
• If the Best of Winners is eligible, the other Winner is ineligible since it was defeated.
• No class dogs other than the Winners Dog & Winners Bitch are eligible to return to the ring.
The breed will not be represented in the Owner-Handled Group if there is no eligible dog
competing in the Best of Breed or in Best of Winners competition.
*Professional handlers are defined as any person who belongs or has belonged to a professional
handlers’ organization, distributed rate cards, or otherwise advertised or represented themselves
as handling dogs for pay within the last five years.
**A current assistant is defined as anyone employed by a professional handler on a full-time
basis, or assisting a professional handler at the show or any time during the cluster/weekend.
