Regulations & Disclaimers:
Please take note of the following: • Only dogs with a KUSA Registration Number are eligible to enter Shows and those dogs which have been given showing dispensation by the KUSA Office for these Shows. • Only Members of the Kennel Union shall be entitled to enter dogs in their registered ownership in any Championship Dog Show licensed by the Kennel Union. • Exhibits will be marked absent if called 3 times. • Bitches in season may only be shown in Breed Classes at all events and exhibitors must exercise due consideration towards other exhibits. • No animal other than an exhibit entered for competition or exhibition shall be allowed on the grounds, with the exception of registered guide dogs. • No late entries will be accepted. • The Show Committee reserves the right to allocate to Open Class any dog entered in a class for which it is not eligible. • No refunds of entry fees will be made for any errors whatsoever made by the owner/exhibitor/authorised agent. • The Show Committee reserves the right to appoint alternative Judges; re-allocate Breeds and advise all exhibits entered; or adjust the judging times prior to the Show, should the appointed Judges be unable to officiate, or receive too large or too small an entry. • The KUSA website, KUSA Classic 2026 Facebook Page and KUSA Classic 2026 WhatsApp Group are the only communication media officially recognised by the Show Committee. The FCI Show is held under the Rules of the FCI, which include the following: o The dogs’ welfare must be of utmost priority at all dog Shows. It is forbidden to expose a dog to a situation that can be dangerous for its health and welfare, such as leaving it in the car in excessively hot or cold weather and/or treating it in a cruel manner. Violation of this rule will result in exclusion from the present and future dog Shows. o The FCI Show is judged according to FCI Breed Standards. o Double entries and late entries (after the closing date) are not permitted. o No transfer by an exhibitor of a dog from one Class to another is permitted after the closing date. o The FCI-Reserve C.A.C.I.B.® is awarded to the second-best dog which was given the qualification “Excellent” from the eligible Classes. The dog placed second in the Class from which the FCI-C.A.C.I.B.® Winner was awarded may compete for the FCI Reserve C.A.C.I.B.®, if awarded an “Excellent” grading. It is not compulsory to award the FCI-Reserve C.A.C.I.B.®. o The Best Junior, FCI-C.A.C.I.B.® Winner, and Best Veteran from both sexes, if awarded an “Excellent” grading, will compete for Best of Breed (BOB). The Judge must also choose the best exhibit from the opposite sex (BOS) next to the BOB Winner. o If a dog behaves aggressively in the ring (breed-group-finals) and its behaviour is eye-witnessed by the Judge on duty, the latter must submit a report for the attention of the Organising Committee and must disqualify the dog for the rest of the competition. All the awards and titles of the day are consequently cancelled. o Where FCI regulations are not covered, then KUSA Schedule 3 shall take effect. Please keep the grounds and bathrooms clean. When grooming and/or exercising your dogs, please clean up after them. Do not leave it for others or the ring stewards to do. No Camping is allowed at the venue. No open fires will be permitted. BENCHING Benching will be permitted from 14h00 on Wednesday, 27th May 2026, provided the rings are set up – confirmation will be communicated via the Exhibitors WhatsApp Group as per link above.
