IRISH KENNEL CLUB Update Statement to IKC Members

MAY 24, 2022

Update Statement to IKC Members

Following the mandate received from the An Ard Chomhairle to examine all options for the National Show Centre, the Board have appointed CBRE to provide a consultancy, advisory, valuation and negotiation service. Once this exercise is complete, all information will be brought back to the An Ard Chomhairle for review, discussion, and a decision regarding what direction the members wish the Board to take.

As you are probably aware CBRE are one of the leading Commercial Estate Agents in the country and have great experience with development lands in the Fingal Area.  We have let CBRE know of Fitzwilliam’s interest and have also asked them to contact Fingal Council to seek out their interest. If other parties show an interest, they will be directed to negotiate with CBRE.

In relation to Fitzwilliam, who have made an application to the Planning and Infrastructure Department of Fingal County Council, this is purely to request a review on the Public Safety Zone and Green Belt planning restrictions as part of the upcoming 2023 2028 Strategic Development Plan.  It is important to note that the Board of the IKC have not signed any agreement, legally binding or otherwise with Fitzwilliam or indeed any other party.

And just to repeat and emphasise, there will be no decision, or agreements committed to, nor indeed can there legally be, without prior approval of An Ard Chomhairle.

This process is one that is endeavouring to find the best possible advice to assist us in finding a solution for the National Show Centre and the provision of an affordable Show Centre for decades to come.

The work and reports by CBRE will inform us all in a professional manner and will enable us to plan a pathway forward.

Pups for Sale

NOTE. Prices vary amongst breeders. The average price for Rough Collie puppies from reputable breeders is currently €800 to €1400. The AICSS believes that excellent quality pups are available from our members within this average price range - however, it is ultimately between buyer and seller. The club cannot be held responsible for any issues between the buyer and seller. 

The AICSS is simply advising of the AVERAGE price for information purposes only – and takes no responsibility. 


GDPR. Potential buyers who contact the AICSS may have their email address shared with AICSS member breeders, but we never share information with third parties.

2020

Due to the pandemic, no Irish dog shows took place in 2020.

Important Information for Irish dogs being entered in UK shows

Press Release from UK Kennel Club..............

Amendments to Definition of Mid Limit and Limit Classes

20 June 2017    15:52

The Kennel Club has agreed amendments to the definition of the Mid Limit and Limit classes at breed shows, with effect from 1st January 2018.

The amendments are as follows:

Mid Limit – For dogs which have not become show Champions under Kennel Club Regulations or under the rules of any governing body recognised by the KC, or won 3 or more CC/CACIB/CAC/Green Stars or won 5 or more First Prizes in all at Championship Shows in Mid Limit, Limit and Open classes, confined to the breed, whether restricted or not, at Shows where CCs were offered for the breed.

[Amendment underlined.]

Limit – For dogs which have not become show Champions under Kennel Club Regulations or under the rules of any governing body recognised by the Kennel Club, or won 3 or more CC/CACIB/CAC/Green Stars or won 7 or more First Prizes in all at Championship Shows in Limit and Open Classes, confined to the breed, whether restricted or not, at Shows where Challenge Certificates were offered for the breed.

[Amendment underlined.]

Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Secretary, said: “The SEC has noted that exhibits can have won three or more CCs, CACs, CACIBs or Green Stars without having qualified for a Champion title, whether they are resident in the UK or abroad. Therefore they were still able to qualify for Mid Limit and Limit classes giving them an unfair advantage over exhibitors whose dogs have been made Champions with the same number of awards. It is for this reason that these amendments have been brought in, to make these classes fairer for exhibitors.”

These amended class definitions will be reviewed by the SEC after they have been in operation for a period of 12 months.

Ted's retirement

I'm sad to tell you all that Ted won't be stewarding at our club shows in the future. He has decided to hang up his steward's pen and retire. On your behalf, I'd like to thank Ted for all the years of service to the Society. He'll be sorely missed.
Of course we recently lost our other wonderful steward - Bill - so the shows will definitely not be the same. But the club is resilient - and the shows must go on. 
A really nice photo of Ted and Bill "super stewards at work" will be on the judge's table this weekend.
I'd like to wish Irene and the other committee members all the best for the future - I know you'll do the club proud. 
regards, Maureen

Club Secretary

3rd May 2016. I'm stepping down as Club Secretary, and leaving everything in the capable hands of Irene Grant – (our assistant secretary/show secretary). So from today Irene is taking over as Club Secretary and all club business can be directed to her. I’ve enjoyed being Club Secretary since the early 90s (apart from one year off) and now I'm going to enjoy not being Club Secretary. Best regards, Maureen
