MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Dear Exhibitor
Oakengates Canine Society would like to welcome you to our 2014
Xmas Show at our Hadley Learning Centre. This is our fifth year at
this facility and we are fortunate to have this super venue. It is
therefore essential that the Society and Exhibitors respect the facility
as the outcome may affect future shows. We ask that Exhibitors
ensure they clean up after their dogs both inside, outside and the
surrounding sports field. Failure to do so may be at cost to the
Society.
The Committee are unable to provide refreshments but there is a
café on site which will provide light refreshments at a reasonable
charge. There are only a limited number of chairs so we ask that
Exhibitors bring their own if required.
If you are willing to steward at our show please
contact the Secretary
Many Thanks for your cooperation and support in making the show
both enjoyable and successful. MERRY XMAS and a HAPPY NEW
YEAR from the Committee.

since the announcement that exhibits are required for judging, unless they have been unavoidably
delayed by previous judging not being completed on time, and then only with the special permission
of the Show Management.
No modifications will be made to this schedule except by permission of the General Committee of
The Kennel Club, which will be followed by advertisement in the Canine Press wherever possible.
All exhibitors must be familiar with Kennel Club Regulation F (Annex B) Regulations for the
Preparation of Dogs for Exhibition.
All dogs resident outside the UK must be issued with a Kennel Club Authority to Compete number
before entry to the show/event can be made. All overseas entries without an Authority to
Compete number will be returned to the exhibitor/competitor.
Dogs in Cars on Hot Days 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. WARNING: IF YOUR DOG IS FOUND
TO BE AT RISK FORCIBLE ENTRY TO YOUR VEHICLE MAY BE NECESSARY WITHOUT LIABILITY 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.
Not for Competition entries will be accepted. Details of each dog so entered must be recorded on
the entry form and must be Kennel Club registered
The Show will be held under Kennel Club Rules and Show Regulations. Every exhibitor making an
entry or entries at this show shall be deemed to have agreed to abide by these Rules and
Regulations and it is on this understanding only that entries are received.
The Committee of this show cannot be held responsible for products advertised or sold by
standholders at the show, and remind exhibitors that such products may not meet the
requirements of the Regulations for the Preparation of Dogs for Exhibition.
Exhibitors/handlers are responsible for clearing up and removing any loose hair or fouling from
dogs in their charge, or any other litter, whether from the car park, the exercise area or from any
other part of the venue.
Parents/Guardians please note, well behaved children are welcome but those in charge of
children will be held fully responsible for their actions and any damage caused within the
environs of the show.
Owners, handlers, exhibitors or any other person in charge of a dog at a Kennel Club licenced
event must ensure at all times that the dog is kept under proper control whilst at the licenced
venue including its environs, car parks and approaches.
A dog may be disqualified by the General Committee from any award, whether an objection has
been lodged or not, if proved amongst other things to have been registered or recorded as having
been bred by the scheduled judge. This shall not apply to a Judge appointed in an emergency.
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.
26. Each exhibitor is responsible for providing their own crate or cage identification detailing that
exhibit number, this should be displayed at all times The original exhibit number as provided by
the Show Society must not be used for this purpose.
27. PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEO RIGHTS
The Organisers would like to bring the regulation on photography and filming to the attention of
exhibitors, trade stands, press and visitors. It is a condition of all those attending the event that
no filming or other form of recording may be taken or made at the venue without the express
written permission of the organisers. The taking of photographs in the venue for sale or reward is
strictly prohibited except with the written permission of the Organisers. Press accredited
photographers are provided with permission to take photographs ONLY for use in newspapers,
magazines and internet sites – this is for news purposes only. There is no objection to the general
public taking photographs or video film of general views of the show, provided that these are for
private use only. Specific dogs may be photographed only with the approval of the exhibitor.
No photography or filming is permitted in breed judging rings whilst judging is actually taking
place. However, judges may allow it to happen at the end of classes. Filming and flash
photography is allowed from outside the rings at all times unless the operation of the camera is
actually affecting exhibits. However, if a powerful flash unit is used or it is clear that exhibits are
being affected, a ring steward or the judge is empowered to stop the person concerned.
Cinematograph or television equipment may only be used at the show if a permit has been issued
by the Organisers.

by anyone so deputed by the Kennel Club. It will be the responsibility of the individual who lodges the
objection or the official (as appropriate), to substantiate the grounds for the objection. The Kennel Club
will substantiate the grounds for an objection made on its behalf.
