Similarly, if the Reserve Best of Breed or Reserve Best in Show is a puppy which has only been beaten by an adult dog it will also automatically be Best Puppy in Breed and Best Puppy in Show respectively. Consequently, selection of Best Puppy in Breed and Best Puppy in Show must follow the selection of Best of Breed and Best in Show respectively.
    Best Puppy in Show must be selected from puppies which have been judged and which are unbeaten by any other puppy.
    Puppies which become eligible for Best Puppy in Show, may be withdrawn from all other competition, other than Breed Classes and Best Puppy in Breed, prior to the competition for Best Puppy in Show in order to remain unbeaten.

  12. BEST IN SHOW
    The dog declared Best In Show is a dog which has competed and is unbeaten by any other dog exhibited at the same Show.
    Best in Show must be selected from all unbeaten winning dogs. Reserve Best in Show must be selected from the remaining unbeaten winning dogs following the selection of Best In Show.
    Dogs which become eligible for Best in Show may be withdrawn from all other competition other than Breed Classes and Best of Breed, prior to the competition for Best in Show, as appropriate,in order to remain unbeaten.

  17. Dog in Cars on Hot Days
    Your dog is vulnerable and at risk during hot weather and the Kennel Club offers the folowing 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 plentyof 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 you 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.

    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 General Committee for disciplinary action under Kennel Club Rules and Regulations.

    Right to Refuse Entries. Exhibitors/Competitors are reminded that show societies have the right under Kennel Club Regulation to refuse any entry.

TRADE STANDS
The Committee can accept no responsibility for products advertised or sold by standholders at the Show and wish to remind exhibitors that grooming products on sale may not meet the requirements of the Regulations for the Preparation of Dogs for Exhibition.

EXERCISE AREA
An Exercise Area will be provided. Exhibitors/Handlers are required to clear up any fouling by the dog(s) in their charge.
