Iowa Admin. Code r. 21-62.40
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 Cornmercial 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 Cornmercial 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 bonafide residents of Iowa, is permissible at any time.
The department may take action under rule 21-62.43 (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.
