HOST HOTEL AND SHOW SITE
Our host hotel for 2015 is the Double Tree by Hilton Hotel. This is a full service, environmentally
friendly downtown Sacramento hotel near Arden Fair Mall and Cal Expo, home of the California
State Fair. Centrally located to all of the exciting attractions and happenings, this Sacramento
hotel is within walking distance to the region’s largest shopping mall, Arden Fair, featuring over
165 specialty stores including Macy’s, Nordstrom, and more. Conveniently located off Business
80, the hotel is just five minutes from downtown Sacramento, the State Capitol, Sacramento
Convention Center, and Old Town Sacramento. Guests will enjoy the outdoor swimming pool and
complimentary modern fitness center. Hop on the complimentary three-mile radius shuttle to
explore the surrounding area. If you prefer to drive yourself, you can be sure that Double Tree
provides convenient, ample hotel parking.
Individual Reservations: Each guest must make his/her own reservations by calling (800) 6863775 by Monday, April 13, 2015. The group code is: KCA. All reservations must be guaranteed by
a first night room deposit or guaranteed with a major credit card. Group rate cannot be

cleared and inspected. The hotel allows 4 dogs per room. All dogs must be in individual crates.
Each crate will have plastic (supplied by the club) underneath it.
The hotel will work with the club to identify those owners that leave dogs unattended in rooms
with excessive barking. Upon the first noise complaint, the hotel will communicate with the
club as to which room generated the complaint. Upon the second complaint, the hotel will ask
the party to control his/her dog’s barking. Upon the third complaint, the hotel will charge the
party to pay for the room adjacent to the room in question.

Keeshond Club of America, Inc. and California Sierra Keeshond Club
Non-Regular Classes Involving Multiple Dog Entries
Stud Dog Class – For Stud Dogs and two of their Get. It is not necessary that the Get be under the
same ownership as that of the Stud Dog. The Stud Dog may be entered in one of the Regular Classes or
if a Champion of Record, in Best of Breed competition, but must be entered in the Stud Dog class. The
Get must be entered in one of the Regular Classes or Non-Regular Classes or, if a Champion of Record, in
Best of Breed competition. The Stud Dog must be shown in the ring with the Get. The class will be
judged based on the merits of the Get.
While the merits of the Stud Dog are not to be considered in the placement of the entry, the Stud
Dog must be examined to determine if it has a condition that would require its disqualification or excusal
under the dog show rules, AKC policy, or the standard of the breed.
Brood Bitch Class - same as for Stud Dog except substitute Brood Bitch for Stud Dog and Produce for
Get.
*Chapter 11, Section 8 of the "Rules Applying to Dog Shows" provides that a neutered male may be
entered as a Stud Dog in the Stud Dog Class and a spayed Bitch may be entered as a Brood Bitch in the
Brood Bitch Class.
Brace Class – For two dogs of the same breed, performing in unison, having at least one common
owner and presented by a maximum of two handlers. Dogs do not need to be entered in any other
class. Dogs comprising a brace class must be named at the time of entry and full particulars must be
given for each dog on individual forms. If a dog which is to be part of a brace is not entered in another
class, it must be entered for “Brace Class only”. An entry form for a dog entered in another class and
entered as part of a brace must be marked accordingly in the space provided for additional classes as
“Brace Class”. If more than one Brace is entered by the same owner, the dogs comprising each Brace
must be so designated, “Brace No. 1,” “Brace No. 2” etc.
NOTE: As the judge’s decision in the Stud Dog Class, Brood Bitch Class, and Brace Class is based on the
merits of more than one dog/bitch, not one of the dogs/bitches making up the entry judged first in these
classes will be eligible to compete for Best of Breed by virtue of having won in these classes.
