REGULATIONS APPLYING TO ALL TRIALS 1. Dogs must be kept under control at all times. Only dogs entered in these trials will be permitted in the Trial Buildings. 2. Only those dogs registered individually with the Canadian Kennel Club, or are eligible for registration with the CKC, may enter. The Listing Fee for a dog not individually registered with the CKC is $9.61. A dog may not enter the Open or Utility class unless it is registered with the CKC. The entry form must be complete in every respect. Exhibitors must abide by any errors made in entering their dogs. Exhibitors should note that the CKC does not confer a title on any dog until it is registered individually in the Club's records. 3. Hamilton Dog Obedience Club will use care and diligence for the welfare of all dogs and exhibitors, but will not be responsible for, nor assume any liability in the event of an accident or other mishap, however caused, to either dog or exhibitor. A dog shall not be touched without permission of the owner or agent. Limited Entry: Obedience: Entry in each trial will be limited to the capacity of the judge to perform 7 hours of judging at the following rate: 9 Pre-Novice dogs per hour, 8 Novice dogs per hour, 8 Novice Intermediate dogs per hour, 7 Open dogs per hour and 6 Utility dogs per hour which will be considered a reasonable average. Rally: No judge will be assigned to judge for more than seven hours in one day, or for more than six hours in one day if judging more than 12 classes. Rally will be judged at the rate of 15 dogs per hour plus walk through time. Once a judge has reached their maximum capacity the entries shall be closed but a reserve list will be created. Handlers will be notified of their position on the reserve list and any entries pulled after closing date due to a bitch coming in season their spot may be filled by a competitor on the reserve list up to and including the day of the trial. Moving Up: A dog that is registered in the records of the CKC or has a PEN, an ERN, and MCN or a CCN and has fulfilled the requirements for a title in accordance with the rules may be moved to the next level of competition. The transfer must be submitted to the trial secretary on the appropriate move-up form by the owner or handler 15 minutes before the opening of each trial, schedule permitting. To comply with CKC regulations, no entries may be accepted, altered, cancelled or substituted after the official closing date and time for entries except for as provided in the CKC Rules. These events held under the rules of The Canadian Kennel Club. Non-Member Participation Fee - Canadian Residents only: The CKC has instituted a Non-Member Participation fee for all Canadian residents who participate in a CKC event but are not CKC members. The non-member participation fee is paid in any year a title is earned and covers all titles and dogs owned by that individual. In order for the title to be awarded, the non-member will have a choice to either become a CKC member or pay the non-member participation fee. Failure to comply within 30 days of notification will result in the title being withheld and the dog cannot be moved up to the next level. A non-member who is a resident of Canada is subject to the fee. Dogs co-owned with a CKC member are exempt, as are CKC members.

There is an extra fee involved in doing so to cover administrative fees. Due to regulations set forth by the Canadian Kennel Club, we are only able to accept these types of entries on the actual day of the trial to avoid extra fees levied to the club by the CKC for accepting ANY entry after the official closing date & time OTHER than entries on the DAY OF the trial. In that regard, we regret to state that, in the event of a 2 day trial, should you wish to enter & have not done so before the official closing date & time of the trial, you will need to submit your entries separately each day, on the day.

The Obedience Trial Committee Chair shall promptly report to the CKC any infringement of this regulation, and the Discipline Committee shall have the authority to take such action as it deems fit on receipt of a report indicating that this has occurred.
