What events does NAMBR sanction?

   Currently NAMBR sanctions Obedience trials, Tracking tests and Earth Dog tests for registered dogs.  These are held in accordance with NAMBR rules and regulations.

    NAMBR rules and regulations for these events are similar to CKC (Canadian Kennel Club) requirements so that NAMBR titled dogs can be truly proud of their accomplishments.


Can registered purebreds compete in NAMBR?

   NAMBR allows registered purebreds to compete in NAMBR sanctioned obedience events.  Purebreds must be registered with NAMBR to compete in a NAMBR sanctioned obedience trial.  
  On receipt of a completed registration application and applicable fees, NAMBR assigns a POD (Purebred Obedience Dog) number to the dog.  The number allows the dog to compete in NAMBR sanctioned obedience events.
  Please note purebreds registered with NAMBR are subject to a listing fee.  The listing fee is in addition to any obedience trial entry fees.  The POD listing fee currently is $2.00 per entry.

Does NAMBR maintain lists of breeders of mixed breed dogs?

   NAMBR is an event registry only, allowing the owners of mixed breeds to compete in obedience trials and tracking tests.  NAMBR does not promote the breeding of mixed breeds and therefore does not maintain a list of breeders of mixed bred dogs.
