Small Dog Event Eligibility
UFO Small Dog Championship Overview
The UFO now offers a Championship for Small Dogs, held in conjunction with the Continental Championships of Europe and North America, on the continent opposite the World Cup Finals.
For example, if the World Cup Finals are in the USA, the Small Dog Championship will be held with the European Cup Finals that year. When the World Cup Finals are in Europe, the Small Dog Championship will be held with the North American Cup Finals.
There is no qualification is necessary for small dogs to enter, though they must meet the size requirements detailed below. An entry fee may apply.
The Small Dog Championship is a Combined Event—Freestyle AND Throw and Catch—following the same format as the Combined division at a UFO Major.
Determining "Small Dog" Status
"Small dog" status is based on the Ulnar measurement: measure the front leg from the elbow to the carpal joint (past the carpal pad).
Dogs with a Ulnar measurement of 13.5 cm or less are considered "Small." A small margin of error is allowed, but please do not attempt to pass off a larger dog as small.
The UFO also recognizes the small dog status of dogs that hold a Skyhoundz Measurement Card (SMC). They may compete in the UFO Small Dog Championship.
Discs
Any UFO-approved discs may be used in the Small Dog event; there are no size restrictions.
