Dogs can achieve the title of champion by gaining three Challenge Certificates (CC) under three different judges. If your dog achieves three CCs or more before 1 year of age, you will need to wait until it is more than 1 year old to gain a further CC to gain its Champion title. 

Being a Champion is the highest award a dog can gain and each Challenge Certificate is awarded based on the dog being as close to the breed standard as possible.
