16. dogs in Vehicles on hot days. 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 Board for disciplinary action under the Kennel Club Rules and Regulations.

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.

Adequate receptacles for the disposal of such fouling will be provided. Anyone failing to clear up will be reported to the Committee who may enforce the right to refuse entries from the exhibitor for future shows.

20. The Committee is empowered to exclude any dog which is not in a fit state for exhibition either from disease, vice or any other cause and if such exclusion takes place either before or after the dog is judged, the entry fee will be forfeited.

21. The Committee will be most anxious for the care & safety of the dogs and any other property entrusted to them but it must be distinctly understood by exhibitors and all other persons that the Committee will not be responsible for the loss, or damage to any dog or other property whether arising from accident, or other cause whatever, or from any act of omission of itself, its officers, agents, servants or other or damage done by the exhibits to any person or properly.
