YKC handling competitions let members compete against one another to find out who is the best at showing their dog. The competition is held in exactly the same format as a breed ring, but it isn't the dog being judged, it's you! The most important thing to remember is: Never come between your dog and the judge.

There are 3 different age categories for YKC handling classes:
