Belgian Kelpies are a minor sub-breed of the Australian Kelpie and the Belgian Malinois.
Mainly bred and perfected in Belgium, they are classified as a working breed and are
used for herding and sport. They are a medium-sized dog with high energy and require
a very large homespace and/or kennel. BK's are very friendly and adore humans.
Adopt one today!

Introduction

Postby Zax » Mon Sep 07, 2015 5:47 pm

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Introduction

Dog competing has been a bulletproof industry for many years, and now it's come to Belgian Kelpies!
Placing your BKs in competitions is purely optional and stressfree. This is simply an activity in which owners can show off their hard work they've placed in giving life to their companions and play around with their talents. All we wish to do here is push you to your limits and help you expand on your artistry while also allowing everyone to have a fun time!

All of this is subject to change and modification, if there's a problem or a question just message me!


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


How It Works

Each competative catagory has its own requirements needed in order for a specific ribbon or trophy to be earned. These requirements may or may not include different themes and or more work in order to achieve greatness. In order to win a ribbon, one must create a piece(art or literature) that follows the given requirements in its own subject. This created piece will be judged based on the given rubric and a proper ribbon or trophy will be given to you. Please keep all ribbons(linked to their awarded piece) on a dog's kennel page. Please note that you will never be pitted against anyone in order to keep this as stress free as possible. Once you are given a ribbon you can continue to collect more ribbons and exchange them for rewards! And that's it! Once you reach the Championship stage your dog will have a range of new opportunities!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Step-By-Step
This is a VERY SIMPLE breakdown of what to do. Please read all/most of the information below.


      1. Achieve a Belgian Kelpie and create a kennel for that kelpie.
      2. Read through and choose a sport you'd like to focus in. (You may do all three)
      3. Create the necessary quality work needed in order to obtain a ribbon.
      4. Fill out a form and wait for it to be judged.
      5. Repeat.

Finding Objects

Every dog has the opportunity and chance to find random items strewn about the competition greens, but you have a higher chance of finding objects when you score higher in competitions! Not only that, but random items have their own percentage rate as well!

►Percentages of finding objects
    - 3rd Place (25%)
    - 2nd Place (50%)
    - 1st Place (75%)

►Percentages of object rarities
    - common (60%)
    - uncommon (30%)
    - rare (10%)

FAQ

Postby Zax » Sun Sep 13, 2015 10:50 pm

FAQ


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Whenever you get an item(ex; berries), could you use them and then sell them for points?


No. You can only do one or the other.

What are handlers and do I need them for each dog?


A handler can be you, a humanoid oc(this includes things like anthros, angels, demons, and such), or a random human you think of. They are the main representative of your dog and your kennel. You should only have one for all of your dogs.

Does everyone start at novice/trial stages?


Yep! Although treating the trials/novice competitions the same as championships may earn you a few pluses. ;')

Are we competing against other people?


Nope! You are basically just competing against yourself/your capabilites/you limits/your laziness.
