Disc Dog

UpDog Challenge is the most accessible entry door into US disc dog. Its structure is a catalog of distinct games, each with its own scoring and level system, plus a cumulative achievements layer ('UPs' earned at Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Unobtanium tiers). The AKC tie-in is the structural lever: since 2019, AKC recognizes UpDog Level 1 UPs as AKC Disc Dog titles, which means an AKC-numbered dog earning UpDog achievements can have those titles recorded on an AKC pedigree alongside titles from other AKC sports.
