AKC News...
According to Dog Fancy magazine, the American Kennel Club has a new program for mixed-breed dogs that gives them eligibility to compete in most AKC sanctioned dog sports:
"As of Oct. 1, owners of neutered or spayed breed mixes can list their dogs with the mixed-breed program. This allows mixed breeds to compete in AKC agility, obedience, and rally, and gives them the support of the AKC in dog-ownership matters nationwide."
