The IWCA is proud to showcase these Irish Wolfhounds and their IWCA member-owners who have received well-deserved recognition for their achievements. The Versatility Certificate (VC) and Versatility Certificate Excellent (VCX) are granted to those members’ hounds that have earned the required titles and awards through participation in a variety of activities. The activities may include Conformation, Obedience, Rally, Tracking, Scent Work, Agility, Lure Coursing, Racing, Canine Good Citizen, and Registered Therapy Dog, among others. Recipients also receive a beautiful medallion bearing the IWCA logo.
Members may access the Versatility Program guidelines and application from the Member Programs page. Note - The Requirements and Application Guidelines for the Versatility Program have been updated for 2022. Please take a look.
Congratulations!
