the Club holding the show to see that this rule is effectively carried out. The Show Superintendent shall

to take such action as it deems fit on receipt of a report indicating that this rule has been violated.

5. Exhibitors are solely responsible for the conduct or actions of their animals while they are on the show

grounds.

6. DOGS MUST BE READY FOR JUDGING. The Club will not be responsible for and is not obligated to

provide any service for notifying owners or agents of breed or class judging. No ring shall be held up waiting

for exhibitors or handlers. Exhibitors & Handlers with more than one dog shall have substitute handlers

available so the judging will not be delayed. All start times are MOUNTAIN DAYLIGHT TIME.

regardless of how or by whom the entry was made.

8. A dog once disqualified for any reason at a championship show held under these rules cannot again be shown

at a show held under these rules until the dog has been examined by an official committee appointed by the

CKC and the committee finds the dog is free from the condition which prompted the disqualification.

Application for reinstatement must be accompanied by a fee of $107.80 + GST (CKC member) or $161.60 +

GST (non-member) which shall be forfeited to the CKC if the examining committee is satisfied that the dog

should remain disqualified. All awards earned at a dog show in violation of this rule shall be canceled by the

CKC and the owner of the dog is subject to disciplinary action.

10. For the benefit of the health of animals and the pleasure of the exhibitors and spectators we insist upon

keeping our grounds and buildings as clean as possible. Exhibitors are responsible for cleaning up after their

dogs. Please exercise your dog BEFORE taking it to the Judging ring. Dogs are to be exercised in the

designated areas only, not in the vicinity of the ring areas.

11. No entry fee will be refunded if the Show cannot open or be completed by reason of riots, civil disturbances,

fire, and Act of God, public emergency, act of public enemy, strikes or any other cause beyond the control of

the Club.
