2009 will see the Triple Crown Disc Dog Championships as a "two city tour".
The first two legs of the Triple Crown will be held on the August Holiday Weekend (August 2, 3), at the Chinguacousy Park in Brampton, Ontario. The disc dog competition will take place as part of the Brampton Summer Festival. The third leg of the Triple Crown will take place in Ottawa, Ontario on August 22nd/09. Details TBA

The Triple Crown Disc Dog Championships consist of three independent disc dog trials:
1) The Canadian National Disc Dog Championships
2) The Hyperflite/Skyhoundz Ontario Regionals (Worlds Qualifier)
3) The USDDN Nationals Canadian Qualifier


The Triple Crown Disc Dog Championship will be awarded to the dog/handler team with the highest overall score from all three trials combined. There will be a Triple Crown Freestyle Champion and a Triple Crown Toss/Fetch Champion. Competitors are not required to compete in all three trials.
