New members with adult dogs:
- Owners must present a current Certificate of Vaccination for C4 (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvovirus & Para influenza) when they join the Club.
- The Certificate must also be presented at each membership renewal time.
- The Certificate must show that the next vaccination is a booster shot, 1 year after the latest vaccination.
- Dogs may not enter the class if a current Certificate cannot be shown.
- Note: For maximum protection against "Kennel Cough", Vets recommend to give your dog a C5 vaccination rather than a C4.
Puppies:
- Puppies cannot join the Club until at least 2 weeks they have completed their final vaccination.
- The minimum age for puppies is 16 weeks.
- The Certificate of Vaccination must show that the next vaccination is a booster shot, 1 year after the latest vaccination.
- As different brands of vaccine act differently, acceptance into the Club can not be dependent solely on the age of the puppy. Acceptance is dependent on the completion of a full vaccination program, and a two week period after that date.
Please Note:
This Policy has been developed to help protect your dog from infection.
However there is no 100% guarantee AT THIS CLUB, OR ELSEWHERE, that vaccination will protect your dog.
Our Policy provides the best effort to minimise the risk to your dog.
