Barn Hunt Title Tracker
Keep your dog's Barn Hunt titles, qualifying legs, and progress easier to follow from Novice through championships and beyond.
Barn Hunt has a way of starting with, “Let's see if my dog likes this,” and turning into, “Wait... how many legs do we have now?”
As your dog moves through levels, there is more to remember than the title already sitting after their name. There are qualifying legs toward the next level, championship progress, Crazy 8s points, and whatever goal you have decided to chase next.
Happy Dog League Title Tracker gives that progress somewhere to live, so you can spend less time trying to remember what counted and more time enjoying the hunt.
Follow your progress
Follow Your Barn Hunt Title Progress
Barn Hunt titles build as your dog earns qualifying results and moves through increasingly challenging levels.
Instead of only recording a title after it is finished, you can follow the progress leading up to it. Add qualifying legs as your dog earns them, see what has already been completed, and keep the next goal visible.
That becomes especially helpful as your dog gets farther into the sport and “I think we're close” is no longer quite enough information.
The main title path includes:
- Novice Barn Hunt (RATN)
- Open Barn Hunt (RATO)
- Senior Barn Hunt (RATS)
- Master Barn Hunt (RATM)
- Barn Hunt Champion (RATCh)
- Barn Hunt Master Champion (RATChX)
Higher level goals
Barn Hunt Gets More Interesting as You Move Up
One of the fun things about Barn Hunt for dogs is that the sport grows with the team. The early levels introduce the basic hunt, while later levels become more challenging and eventually lead into Master and championship goals.
That also means the record gets bigger.
A dog that started with a first Novice qualifying leg may eventually have several Barn Hunt titles, championship progress, and Crazy 8s points to keep up with. If you compete regularly, those individual results can add up surprisingly quickly.
A Barn Hunt title tracker lets you keep following the journey instead of trying to rebuild it later from old results and memory.
Crazy 8s progress
Track Crazy 8s Alongside Regular Barn Hunt Titles
Barn Hunt title progression is not limited to the regular Novice-to-Champion path.
Crazy 8s gives you another set of accomplishments to follow alongside your dog's regular Barn Hunt titles.
Keeping those paths separate makes it much easier to answer the question that matters after an event: Where are we now?
Crazy 8s Bronze (CZ8B)
Crazy 8s Silver (CZ8S)
Crazy 8s Gold (CZ8G)
Crazy 8s Platinum (CZ8P)
AKC Barn Hunt titles
What About AKC Barn Hunt Titles?
If you have searched for AKC Barn Hunt titles, there is an important distinction to know.
Barn Hunt competitions and titles are administered by the Barn Hunt Association. AKC recognizes eligible titles earned through Barn Hunt Association events, which means those accomplishments can also become part of an eligible dog's AKC record.
Happy Dog League Title Tracker lets you follow the Barn Hunt progress itself while still keeping those accomplishments alongside the other sports and titles your dog earns.
Personal tracking, not official records
Use the tracker to stay organized between trials, then verify official titles, legs, points, eligibility, and records directly with the appropriate organization.
Already have Barn Hunt titles?
You do not need to recreate every Barn Hunt trial.
Add the titles your dog has already earned, then set up the title or goal they are currently working toward. From there, you can add new qualifying progress as it happens.
Maybe your dog already has RATN and RATO and is working toward Senior. Maybe you are much farther along. Either way, the goal is to start with where your dog is today instead of turning setup into another project.
More than one sport
Because Barn Hunt Probably Isn't Their Only Sport
Dog sport people have a funny habit of trying one sport and somehow ending up with six.
Your Barn Hunt dog may also compete in agility, Fast CAT, rally, scent work, dock diving, or something completely different.
Happy Dog League Title Tracker keeps each sport's progress separate while giving your dog one profile for all of those accomplishments. Your Barn Hunt legs stay with Barn Hunt. Your Fast CAT points stay with Fast CAT. Your agility Qs stay with agility.
You can enjoy doing all the things without trying to remember where you recorded all the things.
