I am trying to decipher abbreviations for awards listed on my dogs Pedigree. Could anyone tell me how I could find this information ?
Thanks

Asking the breeder would help. Normally the only awards on a pedigree would be Ch, Champion or FT Ch, Field Trial Champion, or sh ch, show Champion (given to gundogs and Border collies, this is dropped once, or if they gain working qualifications). If it is a foreign breed, with Foreign dogs in the pedigree, there can also be various other working and show titles. Very occasionally you will have CC and BOB noted on the pedigree, these are Challenge Certificate (you need 3 to be a ch) and Best of Breed.

If this is of no help, say what the titles are that you are unsure of!

Thank you, I have yet to figure out how it works

Just to add one to the list, With Flatcoats SDC is Shooting Dog Certificate. You'll only find those on a Flatcoat pedigree.
