GREYHOUND DOG DIVISION
21-62.40(99D) Iowa-whelped dog requirements. A greyhound dog registered with the National
Greyhound Association in Abilene, Kansas, may be registered as an Iowa-whelped dog if the
following qualifications are met:
A dog must have been whelped in Iowa and raised for the first six months of
its life in Iowa by an owner who qualifies as a two-year resident of Iowa prior to
whelping.
Effective December 31, 1986, all commercial enterprises that own
Iowa-whelped dogs must have been formed under the laws of the state for a period of two
years. Effective September 30, 1995, 100
percent of all stockholders or members of such commercial enterprises must qualify as two-year residents of Iowa, prior to the whelping. Any entity registering greyhounds must have proof
available at any time during the two-year residency of the members of the entity.
Sale and lease of dams and pups, between two-year bona fide residents of
Iowa, is permissible at any time.
The department may take action under rule 62.43(99D) if the department
determines that the Iowa owner of the dam has entered into an arrangement with another
person, who is not eligible to be a breeder of Iowa-whelped dogs, wherein the Iowa owner
is acting as an agent or other similar capacity so that Iowa-whelped status can be
achieved.
21-62.41(99D) Procedures for registration. In order to qualify pups of a litter as
Iowa-whelped pups, the Iowa owner of the dam shall file a copy of her national
registration papers(front and back), together with an Iowa Form GH-3 with the department
within ten days prior to the expected whelping date of the litter. Late filings of GH-3 forms postmarked after the
whelping date of the litter will not be accepted. After
the GH-3 form is received by the department, a department inspector must inspect the dam
and litter.
Within 30 days after litter registration with the National Greyhound
Association, the original litter acknowledgment must be received by the department. A copy of the owner’s driver’s license,
voter registration, or any other valid proof of residency of all first-time litter
applicants must accompany the litter acknowledgment.
Any late litter registrations will be assessed a penalty of $25. Litters over six months old will not be accepted
for registration. After the litter
registration, Form GH-1, is received by the department, a department inspector must
inspect the litter. When the application for
individual dog registration is made to the National Greyhound Association, the original
registration certificate (yellow copy) or the onionskin shall be provided to the
department, accompanying the department’s Form GH-2.
62.41(1)
The department will
send the original registration certificate (yellow copy) or the onionskin to the National
Greyhound Association, along with a request to stamp the original registration as Iowa
whelped. The association will send the yellow
registration copy to the department stamped “Certified Iowa-whelped.” The department will make a copy of the
registration for their files and return the original (yellow) to the owner.
62.41(2)
All greyhound
litters meeting the qualifications to be Iowa-whelped, which were whelped in a qualified
kennel prior to January 1, 1985, are eligible to be registered and to race as an
Iowa-whelped dog. If it is determined that
the breeder’s kennel is not qualified, the litter will not be registered and approved
until the kennel has complied with animal welfare laws and regulations. The “Certified Iowa-whelped” designation
will begin on the date of approval and shall not be retroactive.
Individual dogs whelped prior to January w, 1985, if sold to an owner
currently in compliance with animal welfare laws and regulations, may receive the “Certified
Iowa-whelped” designation for owner supplements only.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section 99D.22.
21-62.42 Rescinded, effective 6/13/86.
21-62.43(99D) Disciplinary procedures. The department may withhold payment of breeder’s
awards to a breeder if the breeder is not currently in compliance with these rules or with
animal welfare laws and regulations. The
department shall remit the withheld breakage to the breakage pool at the track where the
money was generated. If a breeder’s
kennel does not come into compliance with animal welfare laws and regulations, a breeder’s
litter may be denied registration and such denial of registration as regards that litter
will become permanent and conclusive.
No
person shall knowingly furnish false information to the department. If a person knowingly furnishes false information
to the department, all registrations of Iowa-whelped dogs by that person may be denied or
revoked.
These rules are intended to implement Iowa Code section 99D.22.
21-62.44(99D) Access to records. An investigator, appointed by the
secretary, shall have access to the premises and records on which qualified Iowa-whelped
dogs are kept.
These rules are intended to implement Iowa Code section 99D.22.
