Model dogs should be judged on the standard of each breed with attention to if the model dog is correct breed type, structure, proper coat type, color and markings. The model should be as realistic as possible, Any fault that is a disqualifying one for the real dog should be one for the model dog. Judges are not required to know the standards for every breed but it is suggested that they have a source for reference material for any situation that may arise while judging. The AKC Website or UKC Website or A Dog Breed Book will be of great resource. Dogs with incorrect breed type, structure, coat type, color abd markings should not be placed. As this is model dog showing, we do allow some creative license and though puppies must be at least 6 months of age to compete in real dog shows, MNoDC allows puppies of any age to compete. Puppies under 6 months of age should be shown in a natural setting not in a Dog Show Ring. OTHERS CLASS: Breeds entering in the Other Class should be judged by their breed standard.
