Правила присвоения титулов в Финляндии

Титул Чемпиона Финляндии получают собаки, достигшие возраста 2 лет, которым был присуждён САС (SERT), и являющиеся Чемпионом другой страны.

САС в Финляндии + Чемпион России (или Чемпион другой страны FCI) при условии, что собака стала чемпионом после 2-х лет,
или 3 САС в Финляндии (1 САС - после того, как собаке исполнится 2 года).
САС, если закрывать титул по набору, можно использовать задним числом после того, как собаке исполнится 2 года.

САС присуждаются Лучшему кобелю и Лучшей суке:
В сравнении на САС участвуют собаки, получившие оценку "отлично" и SA (сертификат дальнейшего сравнения), и занявшие только с 1-4 место во всех классах (т.е. SA могут получить и другие собаки, но в финальную расстановку они не входят).

CAC в Финляндии является переходящим.

Юниоры и ветераны не участвуют в сравнении на CACIB, но участвуют в сравнении на ЛПП.
