How To Figure Points If Your Champion Dog or Bitch Goes Best of Breed
Grand Championship points will be calculated according to the number of dogs competing in the regular classes, as well as dogs competing in Best of Breed competition.
A dog awarded BOB will be credited with the number of GCH points calculated for BOB or BOS whichever is greater.
If the judge elects to award GCH points to his BOB winner today, whether the BOB is a dog or a bitch, the BOB will receive 5 GCH points.
BOB (7 class dogs + 5 class bitches + 6 champions = 18 dogs for 5 pts)
TIPS: Veteran dogs or any other non-regular class dogs are not counted in determining points. All eligible entrants from non-regular classes can earn Grand Championship points. Any Champion dog from the regular or non-regular classes is not considered for the requirement to defeat at least one Champion of Record at three shows .
TIPS: When counting dogs in competition, you only count dogs present that are judged. Dogs that are disqualified, dismissed, excused, absentee or have all awards withheld do not count.

How To Figure Points If Your Champion Dog or Bitch Goes Best of Opposite Sex
If the Judge elects to award GCH points to his BOS winner, we count all dogs of their sex competing.
BOS – dog (7 class dogs + 3 champion dogs = 10 dogs for 4 pts)
BOS – bitch (5 class bitches + 3 champion bitches = 8 bitches for 3 pts)

How To Figure Points for Select Dog or Bitch
Now we move on to Select Dog and Select Bitch. These are new AKC terms created for use in the Grand Championship program. Here we count all dogs of the same sex defeated in the BOB and regular classes. Once again, it is entirely at the judge’s discretion to choose a Select Dog and/or a Select Bitch.
BOB – is a male
SD is chosen (10 dogs – 2 dogs = 8 dogs for 4 pts)
SB is chosen (8 bitches – 2 bitches = 6 bitches for 2 pts)
TIPS: SD/SB count all dogs competing of the same sex then subtract 2.
NOTE: You have to substract "2" of the same sex when going Select dog or bitch! It says it in the area I've put in bold
