THE KENNEL CLUB "GSD CLUB UNDERTAKING"
clause 9 should be deleted by the GSD clubs - this should NOT be part of any undertaking
 

The Kennel Club  "UNDERTAKING" - a true perspective
The Kennel Club (UK)

Are they genuinely concerned about the Health & Welfare of our GSD breed?

INTERESTING and REVEALING INFORMATION
 


QUESTION SENT TO THE KENNEL CLUB

We are currently Exhibiting a GSD with a hip score of 3-47=50. We would be very grateful if you could please clarify for us that if a Judge is aware of our dogs hip score should they penalise him in the show ring although he is very sound and displays excellent movement. This dog is not at stud and never will be. 

REPLY FROM THE KENNEL CLUB

In answer to your query, judges are only required to consider whether a dog is suffering from a visible condition which adversely affects its health or welfare.  

Therefore any knowledge which a Judge may have with regard to the health status of the dog, such as its hip score, should not be taken into account when judging, and it would not be appropriate to base any judging decisions on such information.
