Approved.
5.2.1.4 Application to host a Non-Championship Show on the same day as two Group Championship Shows
TKC Kennel Club was unable to host its Breed Non-Championship Show on 25 July 2021 due to the COVID-19 restrictions. TKC Kennel Club is requesting to host its event on 15 August 2021 in order to contract Learner Judges, enabling them to qualify for the next examination.
There are two Terrier Championship Shows due to take place on the same day, which will be held on the lower grounds at Goldfields. Both Clubs have no objection, provided the TKC Show does not interfere with their numbers. TKC KC plan to use the top field. There were Non-Championship Shows and a Championship Show scheduled to take place on the same date, which have since been cancelled.
The Clubs have given written consent and have no objection. (Documents attached)
We refer you to Schedule 4, Reg.
2.2 Unless dispensation is granted by the Executive Committee, no Non-Championship Show shall exceed two (2) days duration, and no Non-Championship show shall be held on the same day as a Championship Show for the same Group, Breed, Discipline, or an All- Breeds Club unless the venue is more than 160 kilometres from the venue of the Championship Show.
The Shows Task Team have considered this request and have approved the date change, subject to Exco granting the required dispensation as per the above regulation.
Circulated and approved via Round Robin dated 28 July 2021 and tabled for ratification.
Ratified. NdP - the Non-Championship Show conflicted with the Championship Show on the day.
In future Exco must give more careful consideration to such requests. The Non-Championship Show should have taken place after the Championship Show.
5.2.1.5 Dogs owned by Non-Members entered at Championship Shows
The KUSA Office was alerted to the fact that a dog had been entered into the Championship Shows held on 7 & 8 August 2021 in Stutterheim, Eastern Cape, under a Show Clearance Certificate where the declared Owner was not a KUSA member.
Upon further investigation, it was discovered that three Show Clearance Certificates had been issued where the KUSA Office had unfortunately failed to enforce the requirement that the Owner of the dog must be a KUSA Member, even though this is clearly stipulated as a condition on the Show Clearance Certificate.
The following dogs were entered into Championship Shows under Show Clearance Certificates that were issued and subsequently suspended pending the regularisation of the Owners’ KUSA Membership.
Certificate Number 05/2021
Siberian Husky - HIGHTOWER’S KNOXVILLE COWBOY
Certificate Number 06/2021
Whippet – SOUTHPOINT KONRAD
Certificate Number 03/2021
Saint Bernard – U ARE MY LOVE WIELKOPOLSKI BERNARDYN
The following is stated on each Show Clearance Certificate:
Schedule 3, Regulation 7 (Entry for Exhibition) Only members of the KUSA shall be entitled to enter and have dogs in their registered ownership compete in any Championship Dog Show, licensed by KUSA, save for the Breed Classes offered at Specialist Club Championship Shows, where entries will also be open to non-members.
Schedule 2, Regulation 3.1.5 All imported dogs must be microchipped and have a standardized international marker DNA profile.
This is to confirm that in terms of the above Regulation, the dog listed below, registered with the XXXXXXXX KENNEL CLUB is eligible to be entered at any KUSA-licensed show open to the Breed.
The Owner (s) must hold KUSA membership for the full period of validity of the Clearance Certificate..
Membership Applications and payment of the required fees were promptly received from two of the applicants, after having been notified of the requirements, resulting in the lifting of the suspension of these Show Clearance Certificates.
Noted.
It was further noted that any awards issued to the third dog should be withdrawn, unless KUSA Membership is swiftly obtained for the registered owner of the dog.
5.2.1.6 Contravention of Schedule 3, Reg. 18.2 (Leaving the Showgrounds without consent of the Show Manager)
Carried forward to next agenda.
5.2.2 Schedule 3 Reg. 14 – Exclusion of Dogs & Reg. 19.8
Temporary Exclusion Order (TEO) for discussion – Bullmastiff – ADENCROWN AMLAR PARKER – Reg. No. ZA009074B19 following an incident that occurred at the TKC KC /Goldfields KC FCI Shows held 21/22 August 2021, at which it was reported that the exhibit behaved aggressively by attacking a French Bulldog (FREDKA FABULOUS MILKA)

5.4 JUDGES
5.4.1 Article 25 .2 Judges shall maintain continuous and unbroken membership of the Kennel Union from the time their formal studies or activities towards a judging qualification commence until their voluntary retirement from judging, advised in writing to the Executive Committee, or their incapacitation (at the discretion of the Executive Committee), or their death.
The following Judges have advised that they will no longer be available for judging appointments:
Mr E. Hartmann (Disc) GAU
Mr J.H. Kruger (FT) GAU
Mrs L.E. Louw (Breed) WC
Mr A.F. Wright (Disc) GAU
Noted.
5.4.2 Dog Jumping and Agility Refresher Courses
In respect of the above, there are a number of judges needing refresher courses as per regulations below. The National Sub-Committees will be discussing this shortly to allow these judges to complete “online courses”.
Although the Federal Council ruled for a waiver on the mandatory requirements during COVID-19 at its June 2021 meeting, how does this affect Judges who did not complete a refresher course prior to COVID- 19, for whatever reason? Perhaps they were not able to attend on those dates?
May we approve them to judge with the understanding that they must attend the next available refresher course? In most instances, these Judges are regular Judges, if not in these disciplines, then in others, so are not considered as inactive Judges.
Schedule Regulations:
Dog Jumping Schedule 5D Reg. 1.6.15
“ A judge will be required to complete a judge’s refresher course once every three (3) years. The content of the course will be as per the National Dog Jumping Sub-Committee requirements. The course must be presented by at least two (2) Championship show judges.
The list of attendees must be sent through to the National Dog Jumping Sub-Committee as proof of attendance. A refresher course may be in the form of an interactive workshop or be part of a judge’s course as stipulated in 1.6.
If a judge does not complete a refresher within the prescribed three (3) year period, the judge will be required to do a refresher course and officiate at a Non-Championship Show and be observed by a qualified Dog Jumping Judge before they can judge a Championship Show. If the judge does not pass the practical evaluation, they will be required to repeat the Non-Championship Show appointment.”
Agility Schedule 5L, Reg. 2.6.1.13
“A Judge is required to attend a refresher course/workshop at least once every two (2) years to maintain their championship judging status. Such a refresher course/workshop will be organised by the Provincial Agility Sub-Committee.
If the Judges’ status lapses, refer regulation 2.6.1.10, they will be required to attend a refresher course/workshop and judge a supervised non-championship show. The provincial Agility Sub-Committee must appoint a (senior) Agility judge to oversee the non-championship show appointment and once passed, the judge may accept Championship show appointments
The Provincial Agility Sub-Committee is to control the Judges attending refresher courses. Once completed, the list of Judges must be sent to the NAgSC, which in-turn will supply these names to KUSA for ratification .”
[See attached for Fedco Ruling in June 2021 for information]
It was agreed that the Judges be given a 6 months window period within which to complete the online refresher course. Upon completion, AB must be advised, failing which they will be removed from the Judges’ List.

The management Committee is no less than five (5), nor more than ten (10).

9.2.3 Free State Hound Club
At its SGM held 17 May 2021, the members of this Club agreed to add the Herding Group to its Club Constitution.
Due to the unusual nature of this request, the Constitution Sub-Committee requested that this request first be placed before the Executive Committee for consideration.
Other than Clubs for Working & Herding breeds which have a historical link, we have only previously had a merge of Toy & Utility Groups (which did not last long).
Should KUSA permit a combination of two unrelated Groups in a single Club instead of recommending a stand-alone Herding Club?
After discussion NdP advised that the KUSA Constitution does not allow for the type of Club envisaged.
Must either establish a separate Group Club or form an All-Breeds Cub. AB to advise club accordingly.
