Futurity Bonus Prize Program

The Dalmatian Club of America Futurity and the Dalmatian Club of America Foundation is offering a “bonus cash prize” as an incentive program to increase DCA member’s participation in health screenings and data collection.

To encourage the health testing and screening of Dalmatian breeding stock, the Dalmatian Club of America Foundation (DCAF) will offer the following special prizes. These prizes shall be awarded only if the Sire and Dam are CHIC listed. The Sire and Dam shall be deemed CHIC listed if they appear on the CHIC data base 10 days before the judging of the Futurity. These prizes do not require any changes to the Futurity rules.

  1. Breeder(s) of the Best In Futurity winner shall be awarded $500.00 in aggregate by DCAF
  2. Owner(s) of the Sire of the Best in Futurity winner shall be awarded $500.00 in aggregate by DCAF.
  3. Owner(s) of the Sire and Breeder of the best junior or senior that does not win Best in Futurity shall be awarded $200.00 in aggregate each by DCAF.
  4. The Futurity chairman shall determine the eligibility of the winners as soon as possible after the conclusion of Futurity judging. If possible the special prizes shall be awarded during the awards banquet held in conjunction with the DCA specialty.

Note that becoming CHIC listed requires no special effort by the owners of Dalmatians. It is automatic after the owners have completed the 3 basic health screenings [OFA or PennHip hips, BAER hearing, and either thyroid or eye] and are permanently identified and agree to have the results appear in the open data base. Since CHIC lists both normal and abnormal results no Dalmatian is prevented from participating in the Futurity.
