From the NAFA Rulebook

NAFA Rulebook, CP&P Section 7.4 — Changing Clubs

The 87-day period starts the day after that tournament ends. The calculator uses its end date to estimate the first date after the waiting period when the dog may be listed in a regular or multibreed class for a different club.

Review the current NAFA Rulebook for the complete rule and exceptions; the dog must be eligible when the class begins.
