The rankings are calculated in accordance with the 2018 regulations, in which points are tallied based on the classes which apply to earning that particular title (rather than having all points from Levels 1, 2, and 3 count toward rankings in every title category). The following is a summary of the ranking rules:

- Ranking awards are made for the top 20 dog/handler teams nationally and in each defined title category, and the top overall Junior Handlers

- The title category in which a dog is eligible to be ranked is the highest title the dog earned during 2018

- The title categories from lowest to highest are: RL1, RL1X, RL2, RL2X, RL3, RL3X, ARCH, ARCHX, ARCHEX, ARCHMX, ARCHMX+

- Points from Level 1 (A & B) count toward RL1/RL1X rankings

- Points from Level 2 (A & B) count toward RL2/RL2X rankings

- Points from Level 3 (A & B) count toward RL3/RL3X rankings

- Points from Levels 1 and 2 (A & B) count toward ARCH and ARCHX rankings

- Points from Levels 2 and 3 (A & B) count toward ARCHEX rankings

- Points from Levels 1, 2, and 3 (A & B) count toward ARCHMX/MX+ rankings

- Points from Veteran class count only towards Veteran class rankings

- Where the 20th position is tied with others, all tied are listed

- The regulations do not provide for Intro rankings
