Hi Guys
If you folks are really interested in a "Code Of Ethics" with teeth and are
tired as I am of our brief toothless
code then I suggest you look at the Code of Ethics that The Golden State
Rottweiler Club adopted over thirty years ago. At that time the Rott point
schedule was what ours is today. It now is like our point schedule use to be
thirty years ago. Even then among the Rott breeders complained that the code
was too tough and would hurt membership. However, if any of you who are not
wearing blinders at dog shows should venture over to the Rott ring. you will
discover large entries with incredible depth of quality. As ours use to be
years ago.
Interesting, our entries have declined and our point schedule is now the same
as the Rottweiler's was thirty ago. Something to think about.
Tony Amoroso
Ps: I believe the Rottweiler Code of Ethics is the toughest written by any dog
club. I also believe that the GSRC code has been adopted by all the regional
clubs in the country. Proud I finished three Rott champions while I was also
showing German Shepherds. .

CODE OF ETHICS
Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club of America members and affiliate clubs are
expected to adhere to the following guidelines:
A. All Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club Of America (PWCCA) members and
affiliate clubs shall be dedicated to the preservation and welfare of the
Pembroke Welsh Corgi breed.
B. All PWCCA members and affiliate clubs must ensure their actions are

C. The prime objective for breeding the Pembroke Welsh Corgi is to
produce animals of exceptional quality.
* A. Only dogs and bitches of sound temperament and structure, good
health and characteristic type as described in the American Kennel Club's
(AKC) approved Official Standard for the Pembroke Welsh Corgi should be used
for breeding.
* B. Dogs and bitches should not be used for further breeding if they
have, in 2 litters, produced offspring with the same serious genetic defect
such as: blindness, deafness, lameness, or impairment of vital functions
which prevent these offspring from living a normal, healthy life without
major surgical or significant medical intervention.
* C. Bitches to be bred must be in robust health. Eyes and hips should
be checked and found to be within normal limits. A bitch is not to be bred
prior to 1 year of age or older than 8 years, nor should she produce more
than 6 litters in her lifetime. A bitch should not be bred more than 2 out
of 3 consecutive heat seasons.
* D. Stud service should be offered only to bitches whose owners
adhere to the above guidelines.
* E. A male should not be used at stud unless his hips and eyes are
checked and found to be within normal limits.
* F. Members should not consider breeding a litter unless they are
prepared to keep the resultant puppies for as long as it takes to suitably
place each puppy. Members offering stud service should request the above
assurance from the owners of the bitches.
* G. Members should take lifetime responsibility to ensure that
Pembrokes of their breeding are cared for in a safe and healthy environment.
* H. The breeder of a rescued Pembroke, who is a member of PWCCA

such as monorchidism or cryptorchidism. Members are encouraged to use the
limited registration option offered by the American Kennel Club.
* Written agreements are recommended to specify details of the sale
including health guarantees, and the breeder's lifetime responsibility. The
purchaser shall be provided with accurate and valid documentation of the
Pembroke's AKC registration and pedigree.
* There must be no wholesaling of litters or selling of breeding stock
to pet dealers, commercial retailers or distributors or to any party for the
purpose of resale. No member should be associated with an auction, lottery

credit on the Pembroke Welsh Corgi breed and the PWCCA.
