DCA 2010 - Triathlon
The Dachshund Club of America understands that the events held in conjunction
with our National Specialty are more than just conformation. In an effort to promote
the entire dachshund and showcase the versatility of our breed, DCA is awarding
Triathlon awards to the dachshunds which distinguish themselves in performance
and/or companion events at the National Specialty. Any dachshund qualifying in
three or more different performance and/or companion event categories plus the
Triathlon Conformation Evaluation will be recognized by the DCA with a Certificate
of Achievement. The highest combined scoring dog will receive the title “DCA
Triathlon Dog of the Year”.
