As of January 1, 2003, ASCA requires registration of all non-asca registered dogs in order to track and record these dogs for ASCA titles. To have your qualifying scores recorded and receive ASCA titling certificates, you must register your dog and become a service member of ASCA at the time of registration. Forms will be included in this premium and on the ASCA website, www.asca.org. The management will not be responsible for the loss or damage to any dog exhibited, or for the possessions of any exhibitor whether the result was by accident or any other cause. It is distinctly understood that every dog at this event is in the care and custody and control of it s owner or handler during the entire time the dog is on the show premises. Any exhibitor whose dogs and/or children create unnecessary disturbances or repeatedly engage in unsafe or disruptive behavior may, at the discretion of the show committee be asked to leave the site. In such case, no entry fees will be refunded. No entry shall be accepted for a dog or handler disqualified from ASCA Rally programs; a dog or handler disqualified from all other ASCA programs or a member not in good standing with ASCA. A list of such dogs will be supplied by the business office along with the sanctioning paperwork. Dogs must be on leash when not competing in the ring. Please clean up after yourself and your dog. No entry will be refunded if the trial cannot open or be completed by reason of riot, civil disobedience, fire, public emergency, act of God or act of a public enemy or any other cause beyond the control of the organizing committee. There will be no refunds for entries withdrawn after the closing date, or in the event a dog and/or handler are dismissed from competition, regardless for the reason for the dismissal. Refunds will be issued for bitches that come in season, if notification in writing or by email is received before the trial begins. Returned checks do not constitute a valid entry. There will be a $30.00 service charge for returned checks. Any dog which demonstrates aggression towards any person or any dog, whether inside or outside the ring, must be excused from the trial. Any dog which the judge feels is not in enough control to perform the course in a safe manner will be excused from the trial.
