The CRA
is the official governing body for French Ring Sport in Canada. French Ring is a protection
dog sport most similar to Campagne, Mondio Ring and Belgian Ring,
but also sharing common elements with Schutzhund and KNPV. There
are 4 titles that can be earned: Brevet, Ring I, Ring II and
Ring III, each level introduces progressively more difficult
situations and makes greater demands on the dog. French Ring
Sport includes: agility, obedience and
protection exercise.
When competing in Ring, the dog has no collar or
leash on at any time except during the heel on leash. No food
rewards or physical corrections are allowed at any time while
competing. Also, excessive praise/petting will result in a loss
of general outlook points. Points for an exercise will be lost
for multiple commands, incorrect commands, or failure of the dog
or handler to perform the exercise correctly. Control is emphasized
from the moment the dog/handler team walks onto the field, until
they leave at the end.
