What is “GCH”? - I’m betting it doesn’t exist! Or is that a specialty club honor?

>What is “GCH”?<

Grand champion - AKC figured out that once the average dog got its championship, it went home never to be in a show ring again. So now people compete in the BOB classes to get a grand championship, then 2nd grand, 3rd, 4th, etc.

I’ll take my retired champions into the obedience or rally classes instead. I think a good dog needs a title at both ends of its name.

GCH is Grand Champion.....it’s a relatively new thing AKC has done.

I do believe you have to be a CH first to get any “Grand” points.
