The requirements for the Grand Champion title are on Page 22 of the May Review, coming soon to a mailbox near you <g> Susan Casey Front Range German Shepherd Rescue Erynbrook German Shepherds In a message dated 4/26/2010 2:37:32 P.M.

So, I asked and I learned the following: "The AKC JAM/AOE" Award is received when your dog is NOT awarded Best of Breed and NOT awarded Best Opposite Sex at the Eukanuba AKC Invitational Show but still acknowledged by the all breed judge on that day, as having merit. A ribbon is presented to the dogs that did not go BOB or BOS but the judge felt should receive another award that says, "Award of Excellence." Now, I have lots of questions regarding the AKC "Grand Champion" title.
