To accept online entries and unlock PerfDog's event management tools for your event, you'll need to upload your Premium List when setting up your event at PerfDog. Your event's Premium List needs two specific sections:
1. Entry Instructions:
Clearly state how participants can register: online at PerfDog or by mailing an entry form with a check (payable to PerfDog) to:
PerfDog, 539 W. Commerce St. #560, Dallas, Texas 75208
2. Fee Disclosure:
This section includes a fee disclosure that tells entrants that a processing fee is being charged. The specific wording for the fee disclosure depends on how you choose to handle PerfDog's processing fees. This disclosure is required by both the AKC and PerfDog. See the specific disclosures here: Premium Language
Additionally, you must incorporate the PerfDog Processing Fees into your entry fees and into any fees you charge for camping, meals, etc. We also recommend you include them in all published entry fees for your event:
Fees in your Premium List
Entry fees listed at the AKC's website (if applicable)
On PerfDog
This helps avoid confusion for everyone, including anyone who decides to mail an entry form and check based on the information they see on AKC's website.
Not using PerfDog's online event software but would like folks to find your hunt test or field trial premium? Upload your Premium List to your event page. Simply uploading a Premium is free and there's no need to include our required language. Read more here
If your event is a Clinic, Training Day, etc., or does not have or require a Premium List, you'll need to create and upload a Flyer to your event page. This can be as simple as a Word document with your event info. See what we suggest adding to your Flyer.
