Register of Merit (ROM) - Application Form - PDF / Application Form - Word

Background

In 1991, the Collie Club of Canada established the Register of Merit Canada (ROMC) program, the first program of its kind in North America, to recognize and honour the country’s top producing Rough and Smooth Collies.  The program was instituted to honour those Collies who not only produce offspring recognized in the conformation ring, but who also honour their heritage and purpose by producing offspring demonstrating the ability and desire to work.

In 1994 the “Canada” portion of the ROMC was eliminated, making it the Register of Merit (ROM) program and the Register of Merit Excellent (ROMX) program was established to recognize and honour the crème de la crème. 

All ROM and ROMX certificates are numbered and controlled.

There is a $5 fee to update each ROM(X) file.  However, if information is already in a file and has been accidentally missed in the on-line files, there will be no charge.
