Registration

The entry will be accepted only against payment of the entry fee. The amount of the entry fee can be found in the respective Caniva event listing. The list of participants will be updated on the corresponding Caniva event page

Payment:

• Payment of the registration fee does not guarantee you a starting place. The fee is solely for the consideration of your registration in the selection process.
• Once you have received a starting place, the registration fee is no longer refundable – regardless of whether you take part in the event or not.
• If you withdraw before receiving a starting place, we will fully refund the registration fee.
• If the withdrawal is not made at least 7 days before the draw, you forfeit the right to a refund—even if a starting place has not yet been assigned by that time.
• Participants who receive a starting spot and fail to appear without prior notice will be excluded from participating in CACIT Germany the following year.

• For participants in CACIT (Mondioring/IGP) as well as conference speakers, attendance is free of charge.
• Cancellation of the registration and refund of the participation fee is not possible.
• The conference ticket can be transferred to another person under the following conditions:
  
  • Please send an email with the updated participant information to: aremus@doegel.de
• Livestream tickets for the event are available separately via working-dog.com. Participation conditions can be found on the corresponding booking page on working-dog.com.
  
  
• Further information about the CACIT Conference will be available HERE (inactive until the conference page is live).

In the event of a cancellation by CACIT Germany due to force majeure, part of the entry fee will be used to cover the costs already incurred. The remaining amount will be refunded to the participant.

General conditions of participation:

• By registering, the participant agrees to the terms and conditions specified in the corresponding Caniva event.
• The event will be recorded in full or in part. By registering, participants agree to this. Conference participants with a valid booking will receive free access to the available conference recordings after the event. Information on data protection and the processing of personal data is available in the registration system.
• Only dogs from FCI member countries that meet the requirements for participation in the IGP or Mondioring category competitions are eligible to take part.
• Dogs may compete in IGP 3 and Mondioring Cat 1–3, provided they meet the minimum requirements as per the FCI trial rules for the respective level.
• The FCI trial regulations apply.
• All participants are required to comply with the Animal Cruelty Protection Act throughout the competition. It is strictly forbidden to use correction aids (spiked collars, electronic collars, etc.). All participants are also required to follow the rules of sportsmanship throughout the competition. Violation of the above obligations will result in immediate disqualification from the competition.
• Each dog must be expressly identified by number or chip and have the animal’s valid international passport.
• Only participants who send in their entries by the closing date can take part in the competition.
• The handler is responsible for any damage caused by the dog. All participants are obligated to comply with the Animal Welfare Act throughout the entire event.
• The organizer is not responsible for injuries, loss or death of dogs.
• Throughout the event, all owners/operators must secure their animals to prevent mutual attacks or injury to people. They are also fully responsible for any damage/injury caused by their unsecured dogs.
• Participants must follow the organizational instructions during the event.
• Participants must attend the closing ceremony.
• The maximum number of participants is 160 for IGP and 100 for Mondioring. If the number of applications exceeds this, the allocation procedure detailed further below on this page will determine the assignment of start spots.
  
  
• Protests are allowed only on formal grounds against the violation of rules and proposals. The judge’s order is final.
• The fee for filing a protest is 150€.

• The first 10 starting places are awarded to the Top 10 of the previous year’s Golden League, to ensure a high-quality field of competitors.
• 70 further starting spots are exclusively reserved for RSV2000 members, since CACIT Germany also serves as a qualifier for the VDH German Championship.
• After these first 80 slots, the remaining 80 places will be allocated via a first-come, first-served basis (referred to as “Windhundverfahren”), based on the order in which complete registrations are received—regardless of association membership.
• To promote breed diversity, the first two entries of each working dog breed are guaranteed a starting place.
• If a participant with an already assigned start spot withdraws, the next person on the waiting list (according to the Windhundverfahren) will move up. At that point, no distinction is made between RSV2000 members and other participants—even if the original spot was among the 70 reserved ones.
  
  
• Participants on the waiting list who cannot or do not wish to participate in case of a short-notice allocation must withdraw their registration no later than seven days before the draw.

• CACIT Germany can be used as one of two qualifying trials for the VDH German Championship. For this reason, the first 30 starting places are exclusively reserved for RSV2000 members.
  
  
• After these 30 places, all remaining spots will be assigned via the Windhundverfahren—based on the order in which complete registrations are received, regardless of association membership.
• If a participant with an already assigned spot withdraws, the next person on the waiting list will move up. Again, no distinction is made between RSV2000 and non-RSV2000 members—even if the freed-up spot was originally among the 30 reserved ones.
  
  
• Participants on the waiting list who cannot or do not wish to participate in case of a short-notice allocation must withdraw their registration no later than seven days before the draw.

Veterinary conditions:

• All participating dogs must be clinically healthy.
• The international vaccination certificate must indicate the valid vaccination against the following infectious diseases: Rabies.

• All participants are strictly required to attend the mandatory veterinary check during the designated time period. Any dog that fails the veterinary check will be automatically disqualified from the competition.

• Bitches in heat must be reported immediately upon detection and must be kept outside the event premises.
