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 A Dog Breed Book will be of great resource. Dogs with incorrect breed type, structure, coat type, color abd markings should not be placed. MSiPDC does not put age restriction on puppies. 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, MSiPDC 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. If there are two or more of the same breed in the Others Class, the judge should split them out into their own class. So if two or more Bluetick Coonhounds are in the class then there should be a Bluetick Coonhound Class then the remaining dogs would be judged. The judge should list the breed after each dog for the purpose of making it easier for the record keeping unless they have been split out into their own class.
