If You Don't Follow the Rules Carefully, your Dog's Win May be Disqualified
-
Beginning in 2011, an exhibitor may enter a dog in two different regions; however that dog may only be EXHIBITED in one region.
-
If an exhibitor chooses to enter a dog in two different regions, both entries must be made at the same time, on two separate forms. The box on the entry marked “Additional Region Entered” must be filled in with the name of the additional region.
If the entry is not marked as a double entry, the animal’s awards may be disallowed.
-
There will be an additional $5.00 charge on each entry for the costs of the paperwork of checking the entries. i.e. The charge for a double entered dog is $33.00 per region.
-
The National Chairman will be notified of all double entries and will track all double entered dogs and their respective regions.
-
Since everyone is a responsible adult, the Regional Chairman will not be expected to police their Futurity or try to stop a presumed double-entered dog from showing for the presumed second time. The National Chairman will check to be sure each double-entered dog is marked absent from at least one of the two futurities in which it was entered.
-
Any owner, handler or agent that chooses to make two entries is responsible to make sure the dog is only shown one time. Penalties are severe and will be enforced.
Violation Penalties:
- If a dog is shown in more than one Futurity/Maturity, any and all awards given to that animal will be disallowed.
-
Violations of the Futurity Rules regarding the double entry of a dog or dogs in the German Shepherd Dog Club of America, inc. Futurity/Maturities shall be referred to the Board of Directors by the chairperson of the Futurity/Maturity Committee, pursuant to Article 7 of the By-Laws for investigation and possible action.
-
The penalty for violation of such Futurity/Maturity rules could be prohibition for the owner, co-owner, handler or agent of a dog or dogs in question for up to one year from the date of the decision of the Board of Directors regarding such violation.
