3. Members are urged to foster friendship and offer educational advice to newcomers and novices, observing the rules of good sportsmanship, both in and out of the ring.

Members are encouraged to use a take-back/buy-back clause on all dogs bred by them. Owners of stud dogs are encouraged to be mutually responsible for all offspring throughout their lives.
