Working titles for mixed-breed dogs?

Just curious if there are any reputable organizations out there that offer titles to mixed breed dogs. I would like to have Willow and Bandit work towards the equivalent of a Working Pack Dog title (for backpacking), but I'm not sure if there is any organization that offers such a title for non-purebreds.

I'm also interested in what other titles a non-purebred can work towards, and under what organizations.

Thanks for any info!

Well if your dog appears to be a purebred you can get an ILP/PAL number from the AKC that will allow you to compete in all the companion and field events for that breed. It basicaly means you can do everything except conformation. The only requirements are that your dog is fixed and appears to be a purebred. I belive the UKC allows mixed breeds to compete in thier companion and field events as well, but I'm not as familiar with thier system. There's also mixed breed specific clubs/registries out there, though I'm not sure how often they have events for you to compete at and earn titles.

I was wondering the same thing as I would love to title Upendi in obedience as she'd excel at it, but I'm not sure if there is anything I can title her in as she's mixed.

There is also the North American Mixed Breed Registery
