Variety Not Separately Classified or Best Any Variety Imported Breed Register. a. Shows Judged on the Group System: (Definition; Shows judged on the Group System includes classes for breeds within

more than one group, as defined in Kennel Club Regulation B(A); and require a judge to declare a best of each group after which the exhibits so declared will compete for the award of Best in Show and Reserve Best in Show.)

1) Best of Breed: Where a breed is separately classified a Best of Breed may be declared but only from those dogs which have received a first prize in a breed class at the show. Where separate classes are provided for each sex of a breed a Best of each Sex must be declared.

2) Best of Group: Best of group and subsequent placings must be selected from:- a) The Best of Breed winners in each group. b) The Best dog from the Any Variety Not Separately Classified classes in each group or on each day. c) The Best dog from Any Variety Imported Breed Register classes in each Group or on each day. 3) Best in Show: Best in Show must be selected from the Best of Group winners. Reserve Best in Show must be selected

from the remaining Group winners following the selection for Best in Show. 12. Exhibits will not be admitted to Group or Best in Show competition after a period of ten minutes has elapsed since the 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.

13. Exhibitors must not pick up dogs by their tails and leads when lifting them nor handle a dog in a manner which causes its feet not touch the ground when on the move. This is not acceptable. Exhibitors should note that such practice would constitute harsh handling and reports of such practice will be referred to the Committee under Kennel Club Show Regulation F11.

14. All exhibitors must be familiar with Kennel Club Regulation F (Annex B) Regulations for the Preparation of Dogs for Exhibition.

15. All dogs resident outside of the UK must be issued with a Kennel Club Authority to Compete number before entry to the show/event can be made. All overseas entries without an Authority to Compete number will be returned to the exhibitor/competitor.

16. Dogs in Vehicles on Hot Days. 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 dog’s 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 Board for disciplinary action under the Kennel Club Rules and Regulations.

Your dog is vulnerable and at risk during hot weather and the Kennel Club offers the following guidance to help guide you through the do’s and don’ts travelling to and whilst at KC 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 dog’s 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.

17. Not for Competition entries will be accepted. Details of each dog so entered must be recorded on the entry form and must be Kennel Club registered.

18. No modifications will be made to this Schedule except by permission of the Board of the Kennel Club, which will be followed by advertisement in the Canine Press wherever possible.

19. All exhibits must be the sole and unconditional property of the exhibitor in whose name they are entered at the time of entries closing.

21. The Judge shall be empowered to withhold any award if, in his opinion, there is a lack of sufficient merit, but he must mark on his judging slips that the award has been so withheld.

Note: The attraction of exhibits by any method from the ringside or from outside the ring is prohibited. It is the duty of the Judge, Steward or Show Executive noticing such attraction to ask that it cease.

22. The Committee will be most anxious for the care and safety of all dogs entered for exhibition and for any property entrusted to it, but it must be clearly understood by exhibitors and any other persons that the Committee will not be responsible for the entire or partial loss, or detention of, or damage to any dog or person for any cause whatsoever, nor for any act or omission by themselves, their officers, servants, agents and others, and it is on this understanding only that entries are received.

23. Where prize money is paid out at the Show all such payments (including Specials) are made subject to them being recoverable should the exhibit be subsequently disqualified.

24. Every exhibitor making an entry or entries for this Show shall be deemed to have agreed to abide by Kennel Club Rules and Regulations and by these Regulations, and it is on this understanding only that entries are received.

31. All matters and objections not provided for in these Rules shall be left to the discretion of the Committee, whose decision through the Secretary shall be final, subject only to appeal to the Kennel Club.

32. Should any Judge be prevented from fulfilling his or her engagement, the Committee reserve the right to appoint another Judge or Judges in their place. Exhibitors may withdraw from competition, but no entry fees can be returned.

33. Any exhibitor knowingly exhibiting a dog which has been in contact with an infected dog or suffering itself from any infection will be reported to the Kennel Club.

34. Exhibitors will be responsible for ensuring that their dogs are available when required for judging. If a dog is not available when required the Committee will not be responsible for its absence from the ring.
