Club Programs
The ACD has traditionally been a working dog and thus the ACDCC has created two programs to acknowledge those dogs that maintain the 'Beauty, Brains & Brawn'.
VERSATILITY AWARD
The Versatility awards program was implemented by the ACDCC for two reasons:
-
An educational tool for members to promote the health, soundness and welfare of Australian Cattle Dogs &
-
A recognition program for dogs and owners who have contributed to the breed in the arenas of performance, conformation, and social responsibility.
The following 5 titles are recognised:
-

VX - Versatility Excellent
