Hi Zeke I've been having a similar issue with my own three-legged baby and the AKC. Unfortunately, I don't see the AKC changing their mind in the near future. I have my own issues with the AKC that stems from working in the veterinary community and can attest to how hard it is to convince them to even consider changing a rule. I wish it was different but unfortunately that's the way it is. There is a growing community of dog lovers outside of the AKC that understand a disability had no bearing on a team's ability to compete in canine sports. Cyber Rally and Nosework are two of these communities. I know there are others out there as well, it just takes a little looking to find them. Getting in touch with an agility trainer and/or judge will get you some more suggestions. It may not be the AKC title you want but the true joy is competing with your best friend at your side, going through the course and being a team in more than words. Maybe if more of us tripaw teams compete we can eventually change everyone's minds on what we can do. Just look at how long the human special Olympics took to be instituted and recognized. We'll get there, don't give up!
