Code of Ethics for Rhodesian Ridgebacks

All NWRRC Members agree to abide by a Code of Ethics when they join our Club. This Code of Ethics is presented as a guide to the standard of conduct expected from a Club Member. A Member’s foremost aims should be the welfare and improvement of the Breed. The purpose of this Code of Ethics is to set forth principles of practice to which the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of the United States, Inc. (RRCUS) would have its members adhere as they strive to accomplish the goals and purposes set forth in the Constitution and By-Laws of RRCUS. These guidelines are presented with the realization that ethics are difficult to regulate and that most individuals desire and intend to do what is right. When a member is in doubt on any of the following points, an ethical owner is encouraged to consult with experienced RRCUS breeders or the Ethics Committee.
