This includes expenses for transportation, parking, gas, ferry, lodging, power and miscellaneous dog expenses.  Expenses currently on an average for a weekend per dog are $50.00 to $120.00.

Terms and Conditions:

Client agrees to pay all entry fees and assumes responsibility for making entries unless prior arrangements have been made for handler to make entries and a FAX or phone entry account has been set up to charge all fees to the owners.

Client agrees to notify handler as to which shows will be entered.  It is further understood that failure of client to enter dog (client forgets, the entry service fails to receive entry, entry lost in the mail etc) after verbally contracting the handler to show a dog for a specific show or shows will result in assessment of full handling fees for said shows.  Fees will also be assessed in full if client withdraws a dog after close of entries or within 48 hours of closing date for a given show, extreme emergencies will be considered on an individual basis.

The client shall be provided with marked tear sheets, prizes and ribbons as soon as possible after each show.  All cash awards shall remain in the handler’s possession.

It is understood that the owner of the dog will assume all costs incurred by the handler for any medical treatment by a veterinarian required for the dog while under the supervision of the handler.  It is further agreed that the handler shall determine the need for any veterinary care for the animal while under their supervision.  Although every precaution will be taken to avoid any incident, the handler cannot be held responsible should any ill fortune befall your dog.

It is the client's responsibility to advise the handler of any habits the dog may have that could possibly present a problem in giving safe and adequate care in the handlers' facility or at the dog show.  It is also the client's responsibility to furnish instructions and medications the dog is on medication of any kind.  All clients are required to keep their dog's vaccinations current per their vet's recommendations.

It is understood that the handler, Carol Morrison, also exhibit dogs that she co-owns or co-bred.  Although her name might be on these dogs, the actual owners must still pay their share of the expenses for the weekend.  Therefore, these dogs will be treated in the same manner as all other dogs in the set up.  As only a limited number of dogs are taken to each show conflicts should not occur though if this does happen, in the case of ring conflict, priority will be at the discretion of the handler but will be given to dogs that are not owned, co-owned or bred by handler.

Payment is due and payable upon receipt of each invoice.  A 10% interest rate per month will be charged on invoices outstanding after 15 days.  Any and all disputes regarding payment, which cannot be agreed upon satisfactorily between client and handler, will be settled in a courthouse of Carol Morrison's choice.  It is further agreed that the client shall pay any and all reasonable legal fees and court costs should this action become necessary to collect any indebtedness.  

New clients are required to leave a $500.00 deposit per dog.  All accounts must be paid in full to handler before the dog is returned to owner.  A signed copy of this agreement/consent form must accompany the deposit with new clients or with dog on it's arrival to handler.
