Re-bonitation: In Czech republic, you can re-bonitate the character. In Slovakia, you can postpone the bonitation if it seems the results will be poor due to bad character, if you are not satisfied with results, you can ask for re-bonitation, but not later than 1 month after the first bonitation.
As the earliest age for bonitation is 1.5 years in females and 2 years in males (in SR, in CR it is 1.5 for both I think), the growth should be finished - no reason to re-bonitate due to bad proportions. The shedding is no reason to give bad marks, this is not a show. If your dog is in bad condition, you just don't come to the bonitation - easy... The same with type - if the dog is too heavy (fat), the owner should first get it lean and then bonitate.
The character test is different in different countries. In Czech republic, the mark for character can be given for just the character tests - they accept other marks from out-of-CR bonitations. In Slovakia, we ask to do also the measurements, so that the judges sees the behavior of the dog during the whole process, so also for the postponed bonitation we do the whole bonitation.
