All exhibitors must be familiar with Kennel Club Regulation F. Regulations for the Preparation of Dogs for Exhibition. All dogs resident outside the U.K. must be issued with a Kennel Club Authority To Compete number before entry to the show can be made. All overseas entries without an Authority To Compete number will be returned to the exhibitor. DOGS IN CARS ON HOT DAYS Your dog is vulnerable and at risk during hot weather and the Kennel Club offers the following guidance to help guide you through the dos and donts travelling to and whilst at K.C. licensed events. When travelling to a show please take a moment to consider whether the route to the show is on a busy holiday route, and leave earlier to avoid increased time in traffic jams. If your vehicle is not air-conditioned seriously consider whether travelling to the show is a good idea at all. The vehicle should be as fully ventilated as possible, and plenty of stops should be taken, with lots of water available to drink. Ensure your dog is not sitting in full sunlight. There should be plenty of free flowing air around the dog. When at the show, never leave your dog in the vehicle. Keep the dog in the shade take your own shade for example a large umbrella and always have plenty of water available to drink so your dog stays well hydrated. Avoid your dog taking part in unnecessary exertion, or from standing in exposed sunlight for extended lengths of time. Remember, if you feel hot your dog is very likely to feel much hotter and dehydrated, and this could lead to dire results. Please look after your dogs welfare. WARNING: IF YOUR DOG IS FOUND TO BE AT RISK, FORCIBLE ENTRY TO YOUR VEHICLE MAY BE NECESSARY WITHOUT LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED. Anyone whose dog is entered at a Kennel Club licensed event should take all reasonable steps to ensure the needs of their dog(s) are met, and should not put a dogs health and welfare at risk by any action, default, omission or otherwise. Breach of Kennel Club Regulations in this respect may be referred to the General Committee for disciplinary action under Kennel Club Rules and Regulations. Right to Refuse Entries: Exhibitors are reminded that show societies have the right under Kennel Club Regulations to refuse any entry. The Committee will use every effort to ensure that all exhibits are brought before the judges but will not accept responsibility if the exhibit is absent when called for by the Ring Steward. Should any question arise not provided for in these Rules & Regulations the decision of the Committee will be final, subject only to appeal to the Kennel Club. Every exhibitor making entries for this Show is deemed to have agreed to abide by Kennel Club Rules & Show Regulations, and it is on this understanding only that entries received. You are required to clear up any fouling by your dog. Any infringement of this regulation will be reported to the Show Manager who will take such action as is seen fit. The Committee will be most anxious for the care and safety of dogs brought for exhibition but it must be distinctly understood by exhibitors and purchasers of dogs and all other persons that the Committee will NOT be responsible for the entire or partial loss or detention of or damage to a dog or any other property whether arising from accident or any other cause, whatsoever, or from any act or omission of themselves, their officers, servants, agents or others and it is on this understanding only that entries are received. No animal, other than an exhibit duly entered at the Show, will be allowed within the precincts of the Show during its continuance. The Committee of this show can accept no responsibility for products advertised or sold by stand holders at the Show and remind exhibitors that grooming products on sale may not meet the requirements of the Regulations for the Preparation of Dogs for Exhibition. (K.C.S.R.(F)). Your name and address will be held on a Computer Data Base. This will be used for the Societys records only and for mandatory annual returns to the Kennel Club. If you object please notify the Secretary in writing.

1. These Regulations must be observed when a dog is prepared for exhibition for any Kennel Club Licensed event. Objections may be referred to the General Committee whose decision shall be final and may include reference for disciplinary action under Kennel Club Rule A 42. (a) No substance which alters the natural colour, texture or body of the coat may present in the dogs coat for any purpose at any time during the Show. No substance which alters the natural colour of any external part of the dog may be present on the dog for any purpose at any time during the Show. Any other substance (other than water) which may be used in the preparation of a dog for exhibition must not be allowed to remain in the coat or on any other part of the dog at the time of exhibition.

No act or operation which alters the natural conformation of a dog or any part thereof may be performed except:(a) Operations certified to the satisfaction of the General Committee. (b) The removal of dew claws of any breed (c) The shortening of tails of customarily docked breeds but only up to an acceptable age limit which shall be prescribed from time to time. (d) Operations to prevent breeding provided that such operations are notified to the Kennel Club before neutered dogs are shown. Nor must anything be done calculated in the opinion of the General Committee to deceive. The General Committee without previous notice may order an examination of any dog or dogs at any Show. Any examination thus ordered will be made by a person having executive authority who shall have a written directive from the Kennel Club in their possession. Samples may be taken for further examination and analysis. An individual has the right to lodge an objection to a dog only if he/she is the owner or handler of a dog competing in the same breed or class. An objection may, however, be lodged by an official of the Show or by anyone so deputed by the Kennel Club. It will be the responsibility of the individual who lodges the objection or the official (as appropriate), to substantiate the grounds for the objection. The Kennel Club will substantiate the grounds for an objection made on its behalf. Any objection by an individual related to an infringement of these Regulations must be made in writing to the Show Secretary at his/her office before the close of the Show and the individual must produce evidence of identity at the time of lodging the complaint.
