If multiple exhibitors in a class receive the same top score, the judge has options to break the tie. The judge can ask an additional dog knowledge question or ask exhibitors to run a different showmanship pattern. The judge will select a first-place winner. There will be no run down and back (with two exhibitors at the same time) to break ties in showmanship. The judge’s decision is final.
