Affiliate's Requirements

Affiliates are kind of like "kennel friends". I will not sign up just anyone to be an affiliate. Usually, the affiliates are my friends here on dA who have active kennels. They will automatically be signed up. Most of my adopted dogs will be from affiliated kennels.

Kennels who have adopted Pro-Step dogs, and regularly use them may also be signed up on the list, as well as the kennels who regularly comment and fave and have similar breeding and kennel rules. Either I will ask you if you want to be an affiliate, or you may ask me if you feel that you have met the requirements. If you ask, please provide kennel name and breed focus if you're not sure if I already know. The affiliates will be listed in alphabetical order by kennel name. Someone who asks to be an affiliate and gets accepted will be listed up as a regular affiliate.

There are two types of affiliates; regular and premium. Premium affiliates are the ones I list up myself, and have special reasons to be there. For example; the affiliate has done a great job being active with an adopted dog, and I know my dogs are going to a good home and being used, supported Pro-Step in one way or an other, or I have adopted multiple dogs from their kennel.

Please do not ask to become an affiliate without ever having spoken to me, because that would kinda be like asking to be friends.



Affiliate's Rewards

  • Last minute reservations in litters

  • Discounts on puppies, in some cases; even free puppies

  • Sometimes, litters will be open to affiliates only

  • Prioritized applications for dogs and puppies

  • No breeding fees

  • May co-own dogs

  • Advertised as an affiliate on my front page, breed focus included

Rules
Please take your time to read through the rules to avoid misunderstandings. If something is unclear or needs to be added, feel free to message me about it.
    Formal Rules:
    § 1.1 No tracing, usage of pre-made line art, stealing pictures etc.
    § 1.2 You must pre-register before making any entries, so I can keep track of the entrants.
    § 1.3 Your entry has to be made by you.
    § 1.4 All main entries must be full bodied or half bodied, colored and shaded unless otherwise mentioned.
    Contest Rules:
    § 2.1 No created breeds.
    § 2.2 Only purebred dogs listed under the "Accepted Breeds" section may to participate in conformation.
    § 2.3 One dog can only enter once in each of the two types of events (ex. you can't have a dog entering both schutzhund and obedience as they are two working events, but you can have a dog entering conformation and schutzhund, as it is one show event and one working event)
    § 2.4 All dogs participating in any of the events must be up-to-date on all vaccinations and be dewormed.
    § 2.5 Aggressive dogs will not be able to participate.
    For German Shepherds:
    § 3.1 Only working line german shepherds are allowed to participate (no roached/sloped backs).
    § 3.2 Panda shepherds may not enter conformation.


Accepted Breeds
These are the breeds that the show is primarily about. These are typical dogs used in schutzhund. The accepted breeds are the only ones being accepted to conformation and schutzhund. All typical working dog breeds are allowed in the two other events; tracking and obedience. This means the dog breeds that would likely have one of these jobs. A chihuahua will not typically be a tracking dog for example. If you have an other breed which you feel like should be added to the list, feel free to message me about it. But it has to be a dog that is typically used in schutzhund.

The tracking event will start on an open football field, and the scent will be about a two days old. The target will be a 48 year old white male with short, brown hair and blue eyes. The event hosts will tell you that he is a forgetful ski-runner, and you will get one of the many sweaters he forgets all the time. He will be located far over the icy lake in a lavo (image #6) drinking coffee and claiming that he got lost on purpose, which is partly true.

I sent an angel to watch over you last night but it came back. I asked, "why?" The angel said, "angels don't watch over angels."Twenty one angels are IN your world. Ten of them are sleeping, ten are playing, and one is reading this message. Send this to ten friends including me. I guess if I dont get it back I'm not one of them. As soon as you get five replies someone you love will quietly suprise you. Please read, not joking. God has seen you struggling with something. God says its over. A blessing is coming your way. If you believe in God send this message on. Please don't ignore it. You are being tested. God is going to fix two BIG things tonight in your favor. DROP everything and pass it on. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. Don't break this chain. Send this to 14 friends in 10 minutes. Its not that hard.
