animals_020.gif Brand new and eagerly anticipated event in the K9 calendar with challenging contests and enticing games lined up to showcase your dog’s talents. Theme: ‘It's a Carnival!’ ... loosely translated = ‘Party for Dogs!’

Challenge Competitions animals_044.gif
First time that Agility and OB challenges are being held together. OB challenge encompass pre-novice till open levels. Agility challenge will be running novice and basic jumpers levels. Basic jumpers is another exciting off-shoot of agility sport and as the name suggests, the course is set at a minimal difficulty level and on-leash runs are permitted to convince all agility fans to have a go.

To encourage dog sports in the country, registration fees are set at a nominal RM10 per competition and the top 3 teams at each level will bring home trophies and prizes, courtesy of Eukanuba. The organisers certainly don’t believe in charging exorbitant participating fees, which is cool.

K9 X-games
Sneak preview of some of the intriguing games planned for the day:
Best Retriever
Top Dog Model
Super Sniffer Dog
D Coolest Catch
Top Trick Dog
Longest Sit-up/ Stand on 2
Best Kisser … and in case you were wondering, this game is also only for the dogs.

Just to give you a flavour, here’s a description of some games:

Super Sniffer Dog - One for the hound dogs. Quickest 3 dogs to sniff out their favourite toy or treat hidden under 1 of 9 plastic cones will be rewarded. If your dog manages to sniff out some other item on the field, the ‘finders keepers’ rule shall apply.

D Coolest Catch - One for the air borne dogs who are fond of catching thrown frisbee, ball or any toy or treat for that matter. All dogs will be allowed 2 attempts and judging is based on style, enthusiasm, height and distance. Finest 3 fielders will be rewarded. Takes with either mouth or paws, or both will be deemed a successful catch.

Best Kisser – An event for true dog lovers or rather, dogs who are fond of licking people’s faces. 20 seconds time frame and judging will be based on stamina, enthusiasm and the ‘wet & wow’ factor. The 3 smoothest kissers get the accolades.

The K9 X-games are open to all dogs and each contest comes with 3 swell prizes which are up for grabs, courtesy of Eukanuba. Just for being a good sport, all teams who join in the games will also receive a participating gift from Eukanuba. Best of all, there are no entrance fees and dogs and owners can get stuck into as many contests as they wish. Most of the games are making their debut in the Dog Carnival and the fun factor is set on Xtreme.

So bring along your party tricks and gear as we celebrate in the natural abilities and prowess of dogs. Make a date with us for a hip and sporty time … also time for dogs and owners to get off the couch and hustle to the nearest park to get into shape for the challenges and games.
