CONCESSIONS available on the show grounds. Please pick after yourselves.
FAST CAT
The FAST CAT is a timed straight race of 100 yards where a dog chases a lure. Dogs
are run singularly and earn points based on their handicapped speed. There are no
placements. Titles are issued at designated benchmarks. The dog’s time to
complete the 100-y a r d dash is converted into MPH. Dogs earn points based on
their handicapped speed. A handicap system is applied to a do ’ MPH to
determine the number of points earned. The handicap system is based on the
height of the dog at its withers:
• 18" or greater = handicap is 1.0
• 12" up to less than 18" = handicap is 1.5
• Below 12" = handicap is 2.0
204.545 /time = MPH
Example: The dog’s time is 8.14 seconds.
204.545/8.14 = 25.13 MPH
Points = MPH multiplied by the dog’s handicap
Titles are earned by accumulating points. The following titles
will be awarded:
BCAT = 150 points
DCAT = 500 points
FCAT = 1,000 points
FCAT# = every additional 500 points. Top 20 by Breed by Year: The AKC Fast CAT website will feature the Top 20
Fastest Dogs by Breed by Year national standings. The standings will be updated as
event results are processed.
Fast CAT is open to all dogs 12 months of age or older that are individually registered/
listed with the AKC registration as purebreds, Foundation Stock Service (FSS) dogs,
Purebred Alternative Listing (PAL) dogs and AKC Canine Partner Program.

TIPS FOR HANDLERS
• The track is fenced. However, it is strongly recommended that prior to
running your dog, you have good “recall” control over your dog, as the dogs will be
off leash.
• Handlers should wear comfortable shoes and be physically able to hold and
release their dogs, as well as catch them.
• Dogs will be brought to the start line on leash and released only upon a verbal
signal (“Tally-Ho!”) from the Huntmaster. Dogs may be released by hand, folded
leash or using a traditional lure coursing slip lead.
• Handler should have someone familiar with the dog at the end of the
course to retrieve the dog or have someone else release their dog at the
start line. The handler is expected to promptly secure the dog and leave
the field with the dog on leash.
Handlers MAY recall their dogs to them.
• Lure coursing is a physically demanding sport so please make sure your dog is in
good shape. If you are not sure, make an appointment with a veterinarian to get an
opinion.
• Handlers are advised to warm up their dogs prior to their run and walk them for about
10 minutes afterwards.
• Any person, upon reasonable complaint, may be asked to leave the grounds of the
test by the Field Committee and may be disciplined by the AKC. Children must be
under control of their parents or guardian(s) at all times.
HANDLING. Dogs should run naked or wearing a close-fitting buckle collar. Choke collars and collars with tags or dangling decoration will not be allowed. Slip leads
can be used if the owner desires and will be provided to borrow. Dogs should have
a reliable recall and be retrieved promptly by the owner/ handler at the end of the
course.
