Regulations of the rkf on breeding work

As practice has shown, alas, many breeders and owners of males do not know how to properly document the mating itself and register the puppies. As a result, a situation arises when either the puppies are left without documents or the owner of the dog is unpaid. Let's try to figure out how and what needs to be done to avoid this.

Each breeder must be attached to a club, if there are several clubs in the city, then it is better to consult with friends about which one is better to join. To join the club, it is enough to pay a membership fee.

Before mating, in the first days of pitting, you need to go to your club to get directions for mating (Mating Act). To do this, you must bring with you a copy of the pedigree and a copy of the diploma from the exhibition or the Champion's certificate. With this direction, you can already go to the dog.

All mating conditions are negotiated before the trip, during initial negotiations with the owner of the dog. Immediately before the mating itself, they are negotiated again and indicated in the Mating Act. This is a guarantee, both for the breeder and for the owner of the dog, that after that, the owners of the manufacturer will not demand anything more, and the breeder will make a full calculation.

If an advance payment has been made, then the breeder must have in his hands a signed Mating Certificate, a copy of the dog's pedigree, a copy of the diploma from the show (very good or excellent) or champion certificate, brand. The stamp must contain the pedigree number and the signature of the dog's owner.

If the calculation is by a puppy or upon sale, then the breeder only has a signed Mating Act.

After mating, the breeder must submit the mating certificate to his club to enter the data in the stud book. The act must be handed over to the club within a week, after mating. Retroactively (i.e. after the puppies are born, the club may refuse to enter the mating record, and, therefore, the litter will remain undocumented).

After the birth of puppies, within three days, the breeder must inform the club (just call) about the fact of birth. If the settlement with the owner of the dog has not yet been made, the Breeder must inform him about the birth of the litter.

When the puppies are one month old, you need to contact the club again and agree on the day and time of registration, the club will also tell you which letter to come up with names for the puppies. If no calculation has been made for mating, then the breeder must inform the owner of the dog about the day, time and place of the registration.

The registration itself includes a dog handler's examination of the entire litter, the place of residence of the puppies, the mother of the puppies, and the branding of the puppies. A litter survey report is drawn up, puppy cards are filled in.

If the settlement with the owner of the dog has not yet been made, then it's time to do it. He is also obliged to provide his set of documents (a copy of a pedigree, a copy of a diploma or certificate, a stamp with the owner's signature and a pedigree number).

Only after registration and delivery of the full package of documents to the club, the litter is considered completed, and the puppies will receive the documents.

List of documents required for registration of a litter in RKF:

- Mating act(the brand of the manufacturer must be pasted with the signature of its owner and indication of the pedigree number) (a sample of the brand is shown in the photo);
- Litter registration applications;
- Puppy metric for each puppy;
- a copy of the manufacturer's pedigree;
- a copy of the diploma from the exhibition or the certificate of the champion of the manufacturer;
- a copy of the pedigree of the sire;
- a copy of the diploma from the exhibition or the certificate of the champion of the producer.

For service and hunting breeds, additional documents are required. You can find out more in your club.

How to avoid misunderstandings and not be deceived.

If you are a breeder:

Before you go to mating, inquire about a potential groom. Who is he, where is he from, if someone got involved with him, then ask not only the groom, but also his owner.
- Check the dog's documents (BEFORE MATTING) - pedigree and diploma from the show (for now, just make sure that they exist, since until the calculation is made, no one will give them to you).
- If in doubt, do not be lazy, look at the brand and check with the pedigree.

Perhaps all these preparations will seem strange, but there have already been cases when, when calculating, the breeder received a copy of the pedigree, which for verification turned out to be usually a piece of paper that had no validity. Or the owner provided someone else's pedigree, with blurred numbers. Or a person came to mate with a dog named N, and after the calculation, it turned out that the male N lives in another city with other owners. The result is puppies without documents. Even if everything is arranged as it should be, then after finding out the deception, the pedigree of the puppies will be replaced with a registered one. And the owners will make claims to the breeder, and not to the owner of the dog. Of course, all this does not apply to renowned manufacturers, whose children can be seen at many exhibitions and not in the last rows. This does not apply to those males that you met at the show. It makes no sense for the owners of these manufacturers to deceive you.

If you are the owner of the manufacturer:

The presence of a referral from the club is already a guarantee that the breeder is admitted to breeding, but you retain the right to see the pedigree of the girl.
- stipulate the terms of payment before MITTING, be sure to write them down in the Mating Act. Usually the owner of the bitch comes with one Act, but nevertheless, fill in one more copy, let it stay with you.
- do not give your documents until they have settled with you. Even if the owner of the bitch insists and gives different reasons. You are NOT OBLIGED and SHOULD NOT return the documents until you are settled.
- agree to mating for a puppy with nonresident, if you are sure of the owner of the breeder, if in doubt, if you are not familiar with this person, no one can vouch for him, then agree only to prepayment.
- never give your pedigree to anyone, only when paying for mating and registering for an exhibition. In all other cases, if it becomes necessary to give a copy of the pedigree, paint over, smear, erase all numbers of the pedigree.
- keep a register of mating, write down the names of the breeders, the coordinates of the owners, if known, the number of puppies born and their names.
