months of age on the day of the Show. Where the Best of Breed, Best in Group or Best in Show is a puppy it will

eligible. The dog declared Best Puppy in Show, however, must not compete in any subsequent competition.
Puppies may be withdrawn from A.V. Classes when judged before Breed Classes.
Best Puppy in Show must be selected from puppies which have been judged and which are unbeaten by any other
puppy.
PROVISO: For the purpose of this Regulation, dogs beaten in competition for Stud Dog, Brood Bitch, Progeny, Brace

are suspended.

Show.

classes are provided for each sex of a breed a Best of each Sex must be selected for which the Best of Breed
must be declared from those exhibits which have received an award.

announcement that exhibits are required for judging, unless they have been unavoidably delayed by previous judging
not being completed on time, and then only with the special permission of the Show Management.

offers the following guidance to help guide you through the do’s and dont’s 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 your 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 likely to feel much hotter and dehydrated, and this could lead to dire results.
Please look after your dogs welfare.
