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.
