DOGS IN CARS ON HOT DAYS Your dog is vulnerable and at risk during hot weather and The Kennel Club Ltd 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 LIABILILTY 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 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 General Committee for disciplinary action under Kennel Club Rules and Regulations. Right to Refuse Entries: Exhibitors/Competitors are reminded that show societies have the right under Kennel Club Regulation to refuse any entry. 18 Should a judge be prevented from fulfilling his/her engagement the Committee reserve the right to appoint a substitute. Exhibitors may withdraw from competition, but no entry fees can be refunded. 19. 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. 20. 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. Printed by Metamorphic Printing, Gillingham, Dorset Tel:
