There are 2 ways of obtaining the Danish beauty Champion title - depending on the dog's country of registration (i.e. the owner's country of residence)
a. Dogs owned and registered in all countries can become a Danish beauty champion by obtaining 3 certificates (3 CACs) under 3 different judges. The last CAC must be obtained after the dog has attained the age of 24 months.
b. Dogs owned and registered in a country where the kennel club is recognised by the FCI can moreover become a Danish beauty champion by obtaining 1 certificate (CAC) after 1 January 2008, if the dog has obtained a national beauty champion title in an FCI member country. In this case, the Danish CAC does not have to be obtained after the dog has attained the age of 24 months, if the foreign national championship releasing the Danish championship has been obtained after the dog has attained the age of 24 months. It is a condition that the last CAC for the foreign championship has been obtained after the dog has attained the age of 24 months. It is not enough that the foreign kennel club has confirmed the championship after the dog has attained the age of 24 months.
For some breeds, a working trial, a certain hip dysplasia level or the like is required in order to become a Danish beauty champion. These further requirements must of course in both of the above cases be fulfilled in order for the dog to become a Danish beauty champion. The requirements that must be met in order to become a Danish Beauty Champion appear from the DKK show regulations. Danish-owned dogs must meet the requirements mentioned in the show regulations. Foreign-owned dogs must meet requirements that are comparable with the Danish requirements.For specific breed information e.g. regarding trials or other demands, please consult the DKK information stands at our international shows or contact the information department at Dansk Kennel Klub.
The Danish Champion titles are awarded by the Danish Kennel Club and a diploma can be bought with the title.
The general rules for the Danish Beauty Championship are stated below. Information about other Danish Championships (such as hunting- or working championship) appears from the group sections with special requirements for individual breeds to participate in specific classes, awarding of certificate and champion titles, which is stated farther down in these regulations.
The Danish Beauty Champion title is awarded to a dog that has won at least three certificates under three different judges at Danish shows recognized by DKK. The last certificate must – for all breeds – be obtained after the dog has turned 24 months. Dogs owned and registered in a country where the kennel club is recognised by the FCI can moreover become a Danish beauty champion by obtaining 1 Danish certificate (CAC) after 1 January 2008, if the dog has obtained a national beauty champion title in an FCI member country. In this case the Danish CAC does not have to be obtained after the age of 24 months, if the foreign national championship releasing the Danish championship has been obtained after the dog has turned 24 months. Dogs of breeds with trial requirements, HD requirements or other requirements for obtaining the Danish Beauty Champion title must of course in both above cases fulfil the requirements in question, before they can obtain the Danish Beauty Champion title. The specific breeds and requirements can be found in the group sections with special requirements for individual breeds to compete in specific classes, awarding of CACs and champion titles, as specified further down in these regulations. Danish-owned dogs must fulfil the requirements set for the breed in these regulations. Foreignowned dogs must have passed a trial that according to the Danish breed club can be juxtaposed with the Danish trial requirements, as well as fulfilling HD-requirements or other requirements that can be juxtaposed with the Danish requirements, there might be for the specific breed. In the cases where the Danish breed club does not want to decide whether the documentation sent by the foreign exhibitor or kennel club can be juxtaposed with the Danish trial requirement, the working trial certificate recognized by FCI is accepted as documentation for achieving the Danish Beauty Champion title.
