NOTE: A copy of this signed contract will be forwarded to the Kennel Club for them to keep on record and be used in case of dispute. Kennel Club Regulation B.12.
a) General. The registered owner of a dog may, whilst the dog is still in his physical possession, apply to have one or more endorsements on a dog's records and to have the registration certificate annotated accordingly. The endorsements which may be placed as follows:-
(1) Progeny not eligible for registration
(2) Not eligible for issue of an export pedigree.
b) Conditions. The following conditions shall apply to the placing and removal of endorsements.
(1) When a dog whose registration is endorsed is transferred to a new ownership, the endorsement(s) will be maintained. However, the person who placed the endorsement(s) must obtain written and signed confirmation from the new owner(s), at or before the date on which the dog is physically transferred, that the new owner(s) is aware of the endorsement(s), regardless of whether or not the endorsed registration certificate is available. If requested the person(s) who placed the endorsement must be able to produce a copy of such confirmation.
(2) If the endorsement is not drawn to the new registered owner's notice, and an acknowledgement in writing of the endorsement, signed at the date of transfer by the new owner, is not obtained, then any conflict regarding notice of the endorsement will be resolved in favour of the new registered owner. The endorsement will remain on the register, unless a successful application is made by the new owner of the dog under Regulation B.12.b(3) below.
(3) If the new registered owner of a dog did not have notice of the endorsement, that person may apply to the General Committee of the Kennel Club who will resolve in their discretion whether or not the endorsement should lapse. Any endorsement may be lifted only with permission in writing of the endorser or of a person with due authority from the endorser (in the event that the endorser cannot give permission due to death or incapacity) or by resolution of the General Committee.
(4) Regulations B12b 1), 2) & 3) only apply where the registered owner who originally placed an endorsement on a dog's record, transfers the dog to a new ownership. If subsequent transfers take place the endorsement becomes a matter between the parties involved. In such cases the registered owner placing the endorsement shall not be responsible if notification of the endorsement is not given to any new owner, and may exercise his right to decide whether the endorsement is maintained or removed subject to (5) below.
(5) The General Committee reserves the right to impose, remove or maintain any endorsement. In particular the General Committee reserves the right to impose an additional endorsement "not eligible for entry in any event held under Kennel Club Rule & Regulations, nor any unlicensed event recognised by the Kennel Club".
(6) The General Committee reserves the right to impose the additional endorsement "not eligible for entry at Kennel Club licensed Breed Shows or unlicensed Breed events recognised by the Kennel Club".
