You can still get titles in UKC. Check out their web site. http://www.ukcdogs.com/

Go to http://www.ukcdogs.com/forms.html to download the form for a Limited Privelege where you can register any dog (including mixed breeds) so that you can compete and earn titles. You can also find the rules for obedience from the home page.

Everybody starts in Novice which is some pretty basic stuff, heel on leash, a figure 8 around 2 posts, stand for a quick examination, recall over a jump (the jump is the height of the dog at the withers or shoulder blades), heel off leash, sit stay for 1 minute, and a down stay while the next dog is doing their heeling.
