All three sections count equally, and all three must
be passed in order to earn the degree.
The dog must score a passing mark in each of the three
phases and gain a total of at least 220 points out of
a possible 300.
SchH is tested in three progressively harder levels,
earning the degree SchH I, SchH II, SchH III, with level
three being the hardest. SchH I is Beginning Schutzhund
(minimum age 14 months), SchH II is Intermediate Schutzhund
