In the Dogtrials Agility Competitions, you can only be in the Height Class which equals the official (real) height of your dog, not which height class you enter at an Agility Trial. If your dog has to be remeasured during the year, we will then add the dog to the new Height Class in the Dogtrial's Competition, manually.
