There is a long history of horses and dogs being judged and recognized on structure and performance. Initially, purebred dogs competed in conformation contests with the ones possessing the very best body structure being awarded titles such as a Champion title. Titles expanded to become awarded for performance sports such as hunting, and then later  for sports such as agility, obedience, herding, flying disc, dancing, tricks, and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What is a Title?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Titles are displayed as suffixes appended to your dog’s formal name. For example, a dog may have the formal name of “Winner Winner Chicken Dinner” and the call name “Winnie”. When the dog achieves his Novice Trick Dog<\/em> title, the suffix of NTD is appended to his formal name. Champion titles appear as a prefix to his name. A dog may rack up a whole series of prefixes and suffixes on his name. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
