ADDITIONAL RULES

1. Entries must reach the Show Secretary, Susan Bunyard, 2500 Oakvale Drive, Shingle Springs CA

95682, by 5PM WEDNESDAY August 27th, 2014 PST. Fees should accompany entries. This club

and/or its show secretary assume no responsibility for wrong or incomplete information given on the

entry blank by the owner or agent of the owner. This club and its show secretary assume no responsi-

bility for the owner or owner’s agents entering a dog in a class in which the dog is not eligible to

compete, or for entering the same dog twice.

2. Returned Checks do not constitute a valid entry fee. The Show Secretary will add a collection fee to the amount of each returned check. The returned check MUST BE MADE GOOD by cash or money

order BEFORE the dog will be allowed in the ring.

3. Exhibitors’ Identification tickets and judging programs will be mailed to the address given on the

entry blank. If not received before a reasonable time prior to the show, notify the Show Secretary.

fice. PLEASE BRING YOUR IDENTIFICATION TICKETS TO THE SHOW.

4. During the hours of judging, owners are to be on call, and have their dogs ready to bring into the

judging ring promptly in order that judging will not be delayed. Dogs need only be present for their judging. Dogs not needed for further judging may be excused. It is the responsibility of the exhibitor

to have his dog ready to be shown and at the entrance of the judging ring when the steward calls for

the class. Owners of dogs or the handlers of the dogs alone are responsible for the presence of their

dogs in the judging rings. This means it is not the responsibility of the ring steward, or of any agent of

the show-giving club to locate any dog, its owner, or handler, when the dog’s presence is needed in the

judging ring. It should be understood by every exhibitor and handler that waiting for dogs to be

brought into the ring is a courtesy extended to the owner or handler of the dog. There is no rule of this

club or of the American Kennel Club that requires a judge to wait for an owner or handler to bring his/her dog into the ring. Show hours are 7AM to 10 PM each day.

5. Trophies and prizes will be awarded in the judging ring before the completion of the judging of the

breed and the Show Secretary’s office advised at once, in the event of any discrepancy. All trophies

must be claimed the day of the show. No trophies or prizes will be mailed.

6. Exhibitors are admonished to make themselves familiar with the agreement of the American Kennel

Club, referred to on the reverse side of the entry blanks that accompany this premium list. Rule books

are available at the Show Secretary’s table at the shows or may be obtained from AKC at 5580 Center-view Dr., Suite 200, Raleigh, NC 27606.

7. The club, its Show Secretary, or their members will not be responsible for the loss of or damage to any

dog exhibited, whether the result of accident or other causes and in addition assumes no responsibility

for any loss, damage or injury sustained by any exhibitor or handler. It is distinctly understood that

every dog at this show is in the care and custody and control of his/her owner or handler during the

time the dog is on the show premises.

8. Entry fees shall NOT be refunded in the event that a dog is absent, disqualified, sick, lame, excused by a

veterinarian or judge, barred from competition by action of the Bench Show Committee, or because the dog is ineligible to compete due to being entered incorrectly. There is no refund of entry fee for

duplicate entry. There will be a $2.00 fee charged for cancellation of entry fee prior to closing of

8. There is no provision offered for un-entered dogs at this show.

10. Declination of Entries. The Redwood Empire Mastiff Club may decline any entries for cause and may

refuse to receive or may remove any dog on account of disease, viciousness or other causes, and no

one shall have any claim or recourse against the Kennel Club or any official thereof. 11. If, because of riots, civil disturbances or other acts beyond the control of the management, it is impos-

sible to open or complete the show, no refund of entry will be made.

12. Do not leave any dogs in closed vehicles. 13. An AKC Recording Fee of 50 cents and an Events Services Fee of $3.00 per entry and a $3.00 rally

lected on the first entry only. (American Kennel Club Rule, Chapter 11, Section 2.) 14. Dogs which according to their owners’ records have completed the requirements for a championship
