Drop your AKC Quarterly report(s) here

Obedience, Agility & Rally .xls files from AKC's Companion-Events report.
Drop one or several — the tool figures out which sport each is, and combines multiple quarters of the same sport (AKC raw files cover one quarter each, so a Jan–Jun report needs both the 1Q and 2Q files). Your files stay on your computer.

How these rankings are calculated

Obedience & Rally — per class, a dog must have at least 3 qualifying legs (enough to earn the title); it's then ranked by the average of its 3 highest scores in that class. Classes keep A and B separate. Placements are shown but don't add points.

The specialty S lines: rows whose placement is S1/S2/S3 are the same run recorded a second time in a concurrent breed-specialty's judge's book (one run, two placements, one score). By club decision (Sept 2026) they are never counted as scores — in rally exactly as in obedience. Trophy rows (HTQ/HIGHCM/HCS/HTQS and similar) never count either.

Ties: dogs with the same value are listed alphabetically by registered name (championship prefixes ignored) and share the same rank number; the next rank skips accordingly (1, 1, 1, 4 …).

Rally — High Combined (Adv B + Exc B) & High Triple (+ Master): per day (event + date), the dog's qualifying scores in each class are combined — on a dual-trial day with two scores per class, the best pairs with the best and the 2nd with the 2nd, giving two combined scores; ranked by the average of the top 3 combined scores (minimum 3 to list).

Obedience — Combined Open B/Utility: per trial, the dog's best Open B score plus its best Utility (A or B) score; ranked by the average of the top 5 trial totals (minimum of 5 combined trials to list). This is the club's published combined-award rule.

Quarters: AKC raw exports are per-quarter windows, not year-to-date — drop every quarter's file for the period you want (e.g. 1Q + 2Q for Jan–Jun); same-sport files are concatenated before computing.

Membership: an owner marked * matched the ESSFTA membership directory on the server. Matching is name-based and approximate — verify before relying on it. The roster itself is never sent to this page.
