7. All dogs comprising the entry must be entered in another class (at a full entry fee) at the Specialty Show, Obedience Trial, Rally Trial and /or Agility Trial.

8. A single entry fee of $30.00 for the group of three dogs comprising the Generations entry shall be charged.

NATIONAL SPECIALTY ORIENTATION We invite first time National Specialty attendees to get together for a quick meet and greet and QA session with Anne Palmer and Tim Terella. The plan is to gather ring side after sweepstakes judging and to answer any questions new exhibitors may have. BEYOND THE BASICS, HANDLING AND TRAINING TECHNIQUES AND PSYCHOLOGY FOR SUCCESS IN THE RING AND LIFE, you have already learned to dress for success, know all the gaiting patterns and what leashes and collars to put on your dog. What else is there to know? How about the way a dog thinks and ways to help them become com-fortable with certain situations, real or imagined, why dogs get turned off or soured to working. This Seminar will be a combination of lecture and hands-on – bring your questions, problem dogs and together let us brainstorm and physically demonstrate on how to have a more successful union between man and dog, taking a look at what happens more from the dog point of view. Ideas and solutions are appropriate for obedience, conformation and everyday life. Presenter will be Trish Kanzler, who has more than 50 years competing in showing and on the trail work, and anyone else who would like to share life experiences and solutions. For more information please contact Ann Palmer at 734-426-5917 or [email protected]. Please RSVP on the form below and send to 7559 Zeeb Rd., Dexter, MI 48130.

All checks or money orders must be payable to “SHCA” in US Funds and drawn on US banks. Returned checks or money orders do not constitute payment for goods and/or services. All returned checks will be charged a $25.00 returned check fee. Repeated returned checks and/or failure to repay debts to SHCA, Inc. will result in being placed on “cash only” basis with the club. Any payment received by SHCA for any purpose by an individual, group, or business with an out-standing debt to the club will first be applied to that debt. What this means, for example, is if your check for $15.00 novelty sales is returned, you will be assessed an additional $25.00 return check fee; and your resulting debt will be $40.00. If you fail to pay this debt, but attempt to enter the Specialty, and send a check for $60.00 for two entries, $40.00 from that entry check will first be used to pay off your debt, leaving $20.00 for the entries. In order for both of your entries to be accepted and processed, you will need to submit an additional $40.00.

Attention Fanciers Residing Outside of the US Please notice our change in policy concerning foreign checks. Checks NOT payable in US dollars and/or NOT drawn on US Banks will not be accepted. Also, note that when ordering items to be sent outside of the US, shipping charges will be DOUBLED.

Therefore, donations made to SHCA, Inc., may not be eligible for deduction on your tax return. You are encouraged to consult directly with the IRS or with a tax preparation professional for advice.

AKC Code of Sportsmanship

PREFACE: The sport of purebred dog competitive events dates prior to 1884, the year of

AKC’s birth. Shared values of those involved in the sport include principles of sportsmanship.

They are practiced in all sectors of our sport: conformation, performance and companion. Many

believe that these principles of sportsmanship are the prime reason why our sport has thrived for

over one hundred years. With the belief that it is useful to periodically articulate the fundamentals

of our sport, this code is presented.

Sportsmen respect the history, traditions and integrity of the sport of purebred dogs.

Sportsmen commit themselves to values of fair play, honesty, courtesy, and vigorous

competetion, as well as winning and losing with grace.

Sportsmen refuse to compromise their commitment and obligation to the sport of purebred

dogs by injecting personal advantage or consideration into their decisions or behavior.

The sportsman judge judges only on the merits of the dogs and considers no other factors.

The sportsman judge or exhibitor accepts constructive criticism.

The sportsman exhibitor declines to enter or exhibit under a judge where it might reasonably

appear that the judge’s placements could be based on something other than the merits

of the dogs.

The sportsman exhibitor refuses to compromise the impartiality of a judge.

The sportsman respects the AKC bylaws, rules, regulations and policies governing the sport

of purebred dogs.

Sportsmen find that vigorous competition and civility are not inconsistent and are able to

appreciate the merit of their competition and the effort of competitors.

Sportsmen welcome, encourage and support newcomers to the sport.

Sportsmen will deal fairly with all those who trade with them.

Sportsmen are willing to share honest and open appraisals of both the strengths and

weaknesses of their breeding stock.

Sportsmen spurn any opportunity to take personal advantage of posi tions offered or

bestowed upon them.

Sportsmen always consider as paramount the welfare of their dog.

Sportsmen refuse to embarrass the sport, the American Kennel Club, or themselves while

taking part in the sport.
