Capitol Terrier Association
Code of Ethics
|
PURPOSE:
This Code of Ethics is established for the members of Captiol Terrier Association to promote ideals and principles necessary to maintain and protect the canine. Each member must accept the responsibility to protect the interests of our breed.
Each Member should know that our Code of Ethics is more than a set of rules. It is a commitment to a high standard of practice in owning and breeding and conformation showing.
OBLIGATIONS:
Each member shall at all times display good sportsmanship and conduct. Whether at home, traveling, at shows or motels they will treat all present, including competitors, judges, officials and spectators with respect and courtesy
No Member shall engage in false advertising.
No member shall maliciously malign another member by making false or misleading statements regarding a competitor's dog, breeding practices, or person.
No member shall EVER sell or donate dogs for auctions or raffles, or to pet shops, catalog houses, brokers or for resale purposes.
Members are expected to familiarize themselves with rules and regulations of the UKC.
Breeders shall be familiar with UKC rules concerning record keeping, registration, sale and transfer of dogs, and abide by these rules.
Breeders shall use stock of characteristic type, exhibit soundness, stable temperament, be in good health and condition and be free of communicable diseases and serious genetic defects.
Breeders do not breed just for the pet market and believe the only justifiable reason to breed is to improve the breed. Dogs sold as pet quality are to be sold with limited registration and spay/neuter requirements.
