CC Winners

Dogs can achieve the level of champion once they have been awarded Three Challenge Certificates (CCs) under three different judges (a minimum of one must be won as an adult – ie over 12 months of age). The requirements to become a Champion are listed in the Reg. K.2 Kennel Club Year Book.

Being a Champion is the highest award a dog can gain and they are awarded to the very best of healthy dogs, and a dog must always be Fit for Function: Fit for Life.
