Can you run a tracking collar on your dog in a AKC trial? I have never been to a trial and I was thinking about going to one.

Re: Using a Tracking Collar in a Trial
I believe in an AKC Midwest trial you can, but the tracking collar strap has to match the color collar you were drawn.
In the AKC SPO trials I have ran in an enclosure in PA/NY, no one runs trackers. Not sure you're allowed either.

Re: Using a Tracking Collar in a Trial
In Midwest trials you are permitted to use tracking collars and the standard black is fine just let judges know before casting the dogs.

That is what I was told ...I had to use Black electrical tape the first time I used one to make it a neutral color. LOLnhharris78 wrote:In Midwest trials you are permitted to use tracking collars and the standard black is fine just let judges know before casting the dogs.
