There has been a significant amount of feedback on the Grounders DRI’s being high, so we pulled some data and have decided to make an update to them!
Here are the new Grounders DRI target numbers as of today, Jan. 27, 2025!
20″ – 6.25 YPS
16″ – 5.70 YPS
12″ – 5.45 YPS
8″ – 4.80 YPS
Also, we will be making these numbers retroactive! Please allow some time for that reflect in your dog’s points.
One big thing to note…. The Exhibitor Handbook is currently being completely overhauled/updated, so, these new numbers will not be reflected in the handbook that is on the website, until that new one rolls out. That will hopefully only be a couple of weeks from now.
We also assessed the numbers on Grounders SCT and have deemed them right in line, as far as worldwide Q percentage, with all the other classes, so those will not be changing at this time. Now that Permanent Height Cards are required, we will take 2025 to collect data and reassess SCT’s and DRI’s for ALL CLASSES this time next year.
