There are 21 upcoming AKC Fast CAT event weekends in California, hosted in Lakeside, Woodland, Acton, Turlock, Chula Vista and other cities. The next one is Doberman Pinscher Club of Southern California in Lakeside on September 11, 2026 – September 13, 2026. Fast CAT is a timed 100-yard dash where dogs chase a lure one at a time, and nearly every AKC-registered dog is eligible, including mixed breeds enrolled in AKC Canine Partners. Entries typically close about two weeks before the trial date.
