TITLING PROGRAM

About

North American Cancross (NACC) was founded in June of 2019 for the purpose of promoting Canicross as a competitive sport in the United States.


Competitors may compete with any dog, purebred and/or mixed breed, 18 months or older. The goal of the  sport is to demonstrate the competitor’s skill and expertise in training and performance. Canicross is meant to highlight the fundamental elements of a dog(s) and human running team: strength, confidence, speed, communication and all around athleticism. All who want to compete in the North American Canicross titling program must register a dog with NACC in order to enter the dog in the titling program and in future sanctioned events. 


NACC’s titling program seeks to maintain and promote the highest standards for competition in canicross for dog and human running teams and canine sports enthusiasts at all different levels. NACC’s standards for competition purposes are to ensure a safe activity for dogs when properly conditioned for the demands of the sport.
