The Animaltalk Top Dog 100 Ratings are hugely popular with
dog show enthusiasts, and the coveted title of Top Dog is
highly sought after. The winners will be honoured at the Top
Dog function which will be held in January 2020.
As always, the Top Dog, Top Bitch, Top SA-Bred Dog and
Group winners will all be individually recognised.

A


nimaltalk is proud to launch this
year’s Top 100 ratings. We have the
results of the first shows for you and
if you want to brush up on the rules, go to
http://www.animaltalk.co.za/top-dog. Here are the
calculations for how the Top Dog standings
are calculated.


Calculations
Number of dogs beaten will be calculated
as follows:



  • Best in Show: Total number of dogs entered
    in breed section of catalogue, minus 1.

  • Reserve Best in Show: Total number of dogs
    entered in breed section of catalogue, minus
    total number of dogs entered in Best in Show
    winner’s group, minus 1.

  • Group 1st: Total number of dogs entered
    in relevant group, minus 1. In the event
    of a group winner going on to win Best in
    Show, or Reserve Best in Show, these points
    immediately fall away.

    • Group 2nd: Total number of dogs entered in
      relevant group, minus total number of dogs
      entered in group winner’s breed, minus 1.

    • Group 3rd: Total number of dogs entered in
      relevant group, minus total number of dogs
      entered in group winner’s breed and Group
      2nd’s breed, minus 1.

    • Group 4th: Total number of dogs entered in
      relevant group, minus total number of dogs
      entered in group winner’s breed, Group
      2nd’s breed, and Group 3rd’s breed, minus 1.
