Section H.
Guidelines for Application of Litter Registration.
Litters are to be
described no sooner than 28 days, but no later than 42 days, and in case of
stillborn pups, at birth. Litters not described within this time frame will not
be registered. The color of the Boykin Spaniel is solid rich liver or dark
chocolate. A small white spot on the chest is acceptable. No dog born with
colors other than those listed above may be registered. However, all puppies
born in a litter must be described even if they are stillborn or not eligible
of registration.
The Boykin Spaniel Society has a measurable formula
that sets limits relative to the permissible amount of white on the pup’s
chest. You may write small white spot if the white on the pup falls within the
maximum limits as defined below, and remember that these are MAXIMUM LIMITS.
1. The Width of a white marking in the chest
may not be more than 30 percent of the width of the chest (measured from the
medial aspect or inside of the forelegs). The length of the white marking on
the chest may not be more that 60 percent of the width of the chest. The
limitations apply regardless of whether the white markings are oriented
horizontally or vertically.
2. White markings on the throat, stomach, foot, toe
or any other part of the dog’s body, other than the chest at birth, will
disqualify that individual puppy from registration.
Litter registration fees; $60.00.
After eight
(8) weeks of age the fee is $90.00
and after six (6) months is $190.00.
There will be no litters registered to non members of the Boykin
Spaniel Society. No litter will be registered after the puppies are one (1)
year old.
Section I.
Litters may be randomly inspected at
any time by a member(s) of the Registry Committee or its representative or
designee. The refusal by any breeder to allow inspection of a litter by any
member, representative or designee of the Registry Committee will result in
said litter being denied registration. The refusal to allow inspection of a
litter after being notified by the Boykin Spaniel Society of the intent to
inspect a litter could result in termination of membership in the Boykin
Spaniel Society and all rights and privileges associated with such membership.
