Mentors and Observers


The Italian Greyhound Club
needs to submit a list of Mentors and Observers
to the Kennel Club

as part of the Judges Education Programme (Breed Shows).
Are you able to offer your experience?

To be a Mentor the criteria is:
Persons who have bred/owned at least 2 UK champions in the breed (Champion or Show Champion) and awarded CCs at least 2 times.
Persons who do not meet criteria 1 but are supported by at least 50% of breed clubs (except where there is one breed club, and they have the support of that club) or by the breed council and the KC Judges Committee.
In the case of The Italian Greyhound Club support of the club and the KC Judges Committee.

To be an Observer the criteria is:
Persons who have bred/owned at least 3 UK champions in the breed (Champion or Show Champion) and awarded CCs at least 3 times.
Persons who do not meet the criteria above but are supported by at least 50% of breed clubs (except where there is one breed club, and they have the support of that club) or by the breed council and the KC Judges Committee and have been approved to award CCs in the breed.
In the case of The Italian Greyhound Club support of the club and the KC Judges Committee.
This will normally ONLY apply in breeds where there are insufficient judges qualified as above – mainly non-CC breeds and breeds that have recently gained CC status.
