POLISH CHAMPION

On each dog show in the country the judge is entitled to award the certificate for the show champion title (abbreviated CWC, which is equivalent of the foreign CAC – Certificat au Championnat).

The certificate (CWC) may be awarded both to a male and a female, aged minimum 15 months, graded excellent and placed 1st in any of the following classes: intermediate, open, working and champion, regardless of the number of entries. To become Polish Champion a male/female dog must have been awarded CWC three times, by three different judges. At least one CWC has to be achieved at International or Club Show. The minimal period of 6 months is required between obtaining the first and the last CWC.

Awarding the CWC must be confirmed by the judge by making a handwritten annotation on the critique form: “CWC”, signed separately.
