Dog Registration Rules

Stud Registration Form | Dog Transfer Certificate

The main rules that effect the registration of dogs are:

E-2 Registration of Dogs

(a) Application for Registration in the N.Z. Sheep Dog Trial Stud Register
must be made before any dog which has won a Standard Open event
may compete further. When a registered dog changes ownership and
before any dog may enter an Island or New Zealand Championship, similar
conditions must be complied with.

(b) Application for Registration must be made through the appropriate
Centre Representative and to the satisfaction of the Keeper of the
Associations Stud Register.

NOTE: On the entry form for Championships is the new Rule:

All dogs which have won an Open Trial or enter an Island Championship must be registered for the N.Z. Sheepdog Trial Register. Any other dog may be registered.

NOTE: Decided by the Register meeting at the 2002 Championship held at Cromwell:

Call names only may be used when registering dogs in the NZSDTA Stud Register. The only exception being when a name is being repeated by an owner in which case a numeric suffix may be added.
