MEMBERSHIP GUIDELINES/CODE OF ETHICS & CONDUCT

I. POLICY

A) Each member of the Patriot Papillon Club (PPC) will consider the welfare of the breed when engaged in any activities involving breeding, exhibiting, training and selling of Papillons and will refrain from any such activities which would be prejudicial to the best interest of the breed and the PPC.

B) Every member shall, at all times, whether at home, traveling to shows or at motels, conduct himself/herself in such a manner as to reflect credit on the sport of dog showing (AKC Code of Good Sportsmanship) and on Papillon’s in particular.

C) All member will abide by the Constitution and By-Laws of the PPC and the American Kennel Club (i.e. record keeping, registrations, identification sale and transfer of dogs).

D) It is the responsibility of knowledgeable and experienced owners to assist novices. Novices should be encouraged to seek their assistance and to attend meetings of the PPC.

E) The Patriot Papillon club, Inc. Will not allow the use of its name in connection with any type of advertising by a PPC member.

F) Membership Requirements:

Potential applicants will be required to attend three (3) functions/meetings (as defined by PPC) before a membership application may be processed. Members are required to participate in functions/meetings or work for the club (i.e. work @ at functions, chair a committee or volunteer to fund raise). (Above requirements do not apply for Associate Membership. Associate Membership is open to those who live outside the immediate area; these members may not vote or hold office).

II BREEDING

A) For the purpose of the Membership Guidelines, a person is considered a breeder if he/she produces one or more litters of Papillons, or uses his/her male to produce one or more litters of Papillons.

B) The owner of a stud dog must use discretion in contracting the services of his/her dog. Stud dog service will be offered only by and to AKC Full Registered bitches. (No designer breeding) A stud owner’s moral obligations extend to the puppies sired by his/her males: therefore, he/she should discourage the person who wants to breed an inferior quality bitch and explain why he/she does so. He/she should also ascertain that the owner of the bitch has the proper facilities to care for the puppies.

C) Animals used for breeding should be in good health and physically and temperamentally sound; they should be free from known hereditary defects. (Ideal certification of tests would be CHIC)

D) No Papillon or litter shall be offered for consignment or resale to pet stores, animal brokers/agents or sold for commercial use. (We recommend no papillon puppy be placed before 3 months of age)

E) Papillon sold as pets (not to be used for breeding) must be sold with a spay/castration contract or with the A.K.C. non-breeding registration. Sellers should note in contract that if owner is unable to keep the dog, it will be the obligation of the seller to assist in the placement of the dog in question. (i.e rescue your own)
