Important Notice, no exceptions!
1. No dogs under one year old. Their bodies are not fully developed for this rigorous sport.
2. Dogs with shorter muzzles, i.e Pit Bulls, Boxers, etc. are not well suited for this sport, due to strained breathing issues, and heart stress. Please do not come to meet-up using one of these breeds.
