All dogs must have a CARO registration number in order to compete. This registration should be applied for in advance of the trial.
It is expressly understood that exhibitors alone are responsible for the behaviour of their dogs and/or children. Any exhibitor whose dogs and/or children create unnecessary disturbances or engages in unsafe, disruptive, or aggressive behaviour may be asked to leave the show grounds; no refunds will be given.
An officiating Judge, and/or the Chairperson of the trial, may dismiss from the trial site any person subjecting the Judge, or members, or the organizing committee to abuse, whether that person is competing in the trial or not.
Prong collars, choke chains, e-collars, and other similar devices are not permitted on the property at any time.
Vaccines for all dogs on premise must be up to date (annuals, rabies and Bordetella). Proof will be required to be submitted prior to being accepted into the trial. We will also accept titres performed by your veterinarian within the last year or a vet letter if your pet is not able to be vaccinated due to medical illness.

All dogs must be secured (doors closed) in a pen, crate or vehicle, when left unattended.

Clean, dry indoor shoes must be worn inside the building. For safety purposes, all outdoor, wet, or soiled shoes must be either placed in a leak proof bag and kept with the competitor at their crating location, or stored on the racks provided.
