Since I keep forgetting these, here are the AKC height divisions and the associated rules from
the AKC agility regulations.
Section 4. Height Divisions, Measurement,
Measuring Devices.
Dogs may only be entered in one
jump height division per day for all classes. The following
jump height divisions shall be used in all trial classes:
| 8 Inches: | For dogs 11 inches and under at the withers. |
| 12 Inches: | For dogs 14 inches and under at the withers. |
| 16 Inches: | For dogs 18 inches and under at the withers. |
| 20 Inches: | For dogs 22 inches and under at the withers. |
| 24 Inches: | For dogs over 22 inches at the withers. Dogs may not be entered in this class if they are 22 inches and under. |
| 24 Inch Choice: | Dogs may be entered at this height at their owner’s discretion if their measurement is 22 inches and under at the withers. |
Owners are responsible for entering the proper
height divisions. Handlers may opt to enter in a higher
height division for all Regular titling classes, but not
division lower than their proper height division. If
dog's height at the withers exceeds the maximum
allowed for the jump height which the dog has entered,
the dog shall be moved-up into the proper jump height
the dog was measured prior to their run. In no case
may a dog be moved down in height based on a judge's
measurement at a trial. Dogs that run in a height division
lower than their proper division will be eliminated.
Judges reserve the right to measure any dog they
believe might belong in a different division, and any
dog whose entry in a given division might be questioned. Exception: Owners/Handlers that have in
possession (on the show grounds) a permanent or
valid temporary Jump Height Card for the dog in question,
issued by the AKC Agility Dept., are exempt
being measured and the judge shall accept the measurement
that is listed on the Jump Height Card.
All clubs are required to have an AKC approved
official measuring device on site at the event. Only
the approved measuring device shall be used to determine
a dog's height for their Jump Height Card.
