Can anyone tell me what ROM means.... Can anyone tell me what ROM means behind names of Champions on a pedigree? |
Register of Merit |
What does register of merit mean? Sorry, I am just curious, I have a dog that has several ROM and dont know what it means. |

This is a title granted by the YTCA to dogs that have sired 10 or more Champions and to bitches that have produced 5 or more Champions. |

It's 6 Champions for Dogs and 3 for Bitches. |

Don't feel bad Monday, I thought it was a kennel name until I noticed a few of the dogs from different breeders had it also so that is why I asked. Barb |

ROM-Register of Merit-A dog or bitch must earn a number of points specified by the YTCA rules, and also meet the numbers of champion and major pointed progeny required by YTCA. The requirements for bitches are less than the requirements for the dogs because males have the opportunity to produce a far larger number of offspring. ROMC-Canadian ROM ROM/C-designates that the dog has earned an American and a Canadian ROM. where does it say it has to be a YTCA MEMBER that owns the dog or bitch, can you please direct me to this? |

As stated in the book Only Dogs or Bitches owned and bred by YTCa members will be awarded ROM titles. |

Only Dogs or Bitches owned and/or bred by YTCA members will be awarded ROM titles Dogs must have sired six or more AKC Champions. Bitches must have produced three or more AKC Champions. Now this does not mean that the Dog of the get or Bitch of the produce must be Champions. |
I know they dont have to be a champion to receive the ROM I am just curious why its exclusive to YTCA members only when there are several serious accomplished exhibitors that have bred a multitude of champions that choose not to be a member of the parent club. What makes their dogs/bitches less worthy of the title? I think the accomplishment should be celebrated for breed excellence not exclusive to the parent club members...JMHO |
