Ring Français points

Levels of Competition

There are 3 levels of competition, and an entry level temperament test in the sport of French Ring.  Each dog must successfully complete the BREVET temperament test with at least 80% of the possible points, and at least 80% in each protection exercise.  Once the dog has successfully completed their Brevet, then they are eligible to start competing in the levels of French Ring.  The levels of French Ring are called Ring I, Ring II, and Ring III, with Ring III being the highest level.  To obtain the title of each level, a dog must successfully pass 2 tests under 2 separate judges with at least 80% of the possible points.  Once they have done that, they may move up to the next level, or they may choose to remain at that same level and continue to compete.  The exercises and points for each category are as follows:
