Coursing Ability Test (CAT)
Dogs do not compete against each other. Each dog runs individually and chases an artificial lure on either a 300 or 600-yard-long course depending on their size. The dog must complete the course in less than 2 minutes to qualify and will be judged with a pass or fail score. The course is fully fenced in for safety.
With our main location in Tinton Falls, our club offers multiple training programs for our canine companions benefit: Competition Obedience and Rally Training, Pet Training, Show Handling, Scent Work and Agility Training.
