Code of Ethics
| 1 |
The betterment and well-being of the Skye Terrier shall be the primary consideration of every member of the Skye Terrier Club and is a condition of membership. |
|
| 2 | All members shall ensure that, at all times, all dogs under their control are properly housed, fed, watered, exercised and will receive proper veterinary attention if and when required. | |
| 3 | Before breeding a litter of Skye Terriers, equal consideration should be given to type, temperament, health and soundness. Nervous or aggressive Skye Terriers are not satisfactory as pets or breeding stock. | |
| 4 |
It is recommended that a Skye Terrier bitch should not be expected to start breeding before she is 18 months old, nor be required to have an excessive number of litters (excessive would be more than 3 or 4), and no bitch should be mated at every season without regard to the well-being of the bitch. |
|
| 5 | Skye Terrier members should do all in their power to discourage breeding from clearly inferior specimens. Members who own dogs are at liberty to refuse stud services to any bitch. K.C. registration papers and pedigrees to be inspected before a mating takes place. | |
| 6 | Skye Terrier Club members should only breed a litter of Skyes if they have the time and facilities to devote proper care and attention to the rearing of the puppies and the well-being of the dam. Members should not provide stud services unless they are sure that the owner of the bitch has such time and facilities. | |
| 7 | Skye Terrier Club members should not breed a litter unless they are reasonably sure of finding homes for the puppies, which should not leave the breeder before the age of 8 weeks. Skye Terriers for export should satisfy the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries regulations. | |
| 8 | Skye Terriers should not knowingly be sold to countries where dogs are not protected by anti-cruelty laws (e.g. Japan, South Korea and the Phillipines). (If in doubt, consult the relevant embassy for the destination country). | |
| 9 | Skye Terriers should not be sold, knowingly, to laboratories, pet shops or dealers in dogs, or to persons known to sell puppies to any of these; nor should stud services be provided for such persons. (A dealer is defined as a person who regularly buys puppies in the hope of selling them for profit. A person who buys puppies as an agent for a known individual is not necessarily a dealer). No puppy should be offered as a prize in a raffle or competition. | |
| 10 | Prospective buyers of Skyes should be screened for suitability and advised of the characteristics of the Skye as a breed with regard to grooming and exercise. Each purchaser of a Skye should be provided at the time of sale with a pedigree. A Skye Terrier puppy that is of unregistered or partly registered stock, should not be sold, without the buyer being made aware. | |
| 11 | Skye Terriers which have any physical defect or which show any definite departure from the standard, should not be sold without the buyer being made fully aware of such defect or departure from the standard and its possible consequences. Such animals should be registered "Not to be bred from." | |
| 12 | It should be impressed on buyers that they should contact the breeder in the event of any problem with the Skye. Breeders should make every effort to be of assistance in these circumstances, and must accept responsibility for re-homing. | |
| 13 | Advertising by members should be as factual as possible. Misleading exaggeration or unfounded implications of superiority should not be used. Members should refrain from making unfair or untrue statements about the dogs or practices of others. | |
| 14 | Officers and Committee Members of the Skye Terrier Club are always ready to do their best to help with any queries or problems. |
