Kennel Club Regulations F12 Dog Fouling & Grooming Waste A Any owner, Exhibitor or handler or other person in charge of a dog is required to remove immediately any fouling caused by their dog(s) and/or any grooming waste at any Kennel Club licensed venue and within the environs of that event including car and caravan parks and approaches. B. Any organisation holding a Kennel Club licensed event is required to provide an adequate number of receptacles for the disposal of such fouling waste. C. The Chalking, Powdering or Spraying (with the exception of water) of exhibits within the precincts of the Show is forbidden. Please bring a plastic bag to pick up your dogs mess Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All parents, guardians and minders will in all cases be held responsible for keeping children and dogs under strict control at all times and for any damage or mischief caused by them. NOTE FOR EXHIBITORS Each exhibitor is responsible for providing their own crate or cage identification and should note that the original exhibit/bench number card, as provided by the Show Society, must not be used for this purpose. MOBILE PHONES : Ringside spectators are requested to have their mobile phones switched off during judging, in due consideration for the dogs and handlers. YOUR DOG IS VULNERABLE AND AT RISK IF LEFT IN A VEHICLE IN HIGH TEMPERATURES, AND EVEN ON DAYS CONSIDERED AS SLIGHTLY WARM. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOUR DOG. IF YOUR DOG IS FOUND TO BE AT RISK FORCIBLE ENTRY TO YOUR VEHICLE MAY BE NECESSARY WITHOUT LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED. SOFT CRATES The Kennel Club has drawn attention to the potential health and safety implications concerning the use of soft crates at shows as in its view, they do not offer sufficient protection to dogs. Soft crates left unattended at the ringside are a potential hazard particularly when occupied by large breeds, and it has been known for dogs to become distressed and move soft crates along the floor and also escape. Soft crates should only be used when there is sufficient room available and when they can be safely secured.

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.
