#### Manage breed restrictions

- If your entire event is restricted to a breed, set it here.

- If a specific level or stake is restricted to a specific breed, set those restrictions here.

#### Give entry priority to a specific breed

**Manage the breeds allowed to participate in your event over time. Here's what you can do:**

- **Limited Breed Entry:** Allow only a specific breed to enter for a set period. After that time, you can manually open the event to other breeds.
- **Staged Entry with Waiting List:** Initially, all dogs will be added to a waiting list. You can then manually allow only dogs of a specific breed to enter the event. Once you're ready to include other breeds, simply adjust the event limits to avoid sending everyone to the waiting list.
