| Notes: | |||
| Regulations & Disclaimers: | |||
| 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. No Camping is allowed at the venue. No open fires will be permitted. Benching will be permitted from 14h00 on Wednesday, 29th May 2024, provided the rings are set up – confirmation will be communicated via the Breed Exhibitors WhatsApp Group as per link above. Emergency areas must be kept clear at all times. These areas will be clearly demarcated and also indicated on the ring plan. No gazebos or benching allowed in emergency areas. All exhibitors, owners/handlers/agents of dogs are advised that they and any exhibit entered in any event over the KUSA Classic Weekend may be photographed for, by, and/or on behalf of, KUSA, for the use and possible publication of such photographs by KUSA. Due to time constraints, no posed photography will be permitted in the Main Ring. A special area for the taking of photographs will be provided outside the ring. The KUSA website, KUSA Classic 2024 Facebook Page and KUSA Classic 2024 WhatsApp Groups are the only communication media officially recognised by the Show Committee. Public catering will be provided at all Shows and events. DISCLAIMER Those entering and/or lingering on these premises do so entirely at their own risk and agree, on behalf of themselves and on behalf of those accompanying them, e.g. their invitees, guests and/or minor children, that 2024 KUSA Classic Weekend and/or the Kennel Union of Southern Africa, their Members, Officers, Officials, Employees and/or Representatives, shall not be liable for the bodily harm or death of any person, or the loss or destruction of, or damage to, any property or belongings brought onto the premises, howsoever arising or resulting from any act, omission, or conduct of those entering or present on these premises. | |||
