These shows are usually held during the summer months, have a great atmosphere and are a good place to socialise young puppies There are Pedigree classes and for non-KC registered dogs there are “fun” classes such as ‘Dog with Waggiest Tail’ or ‘Prettiest Bitch’. Companion Show – this is the only type of show where any dog can enter whether KC registered or not.Dogs are not usually benched at single breed Championship Shows. Only at Championship Shows do the Kennel Club award Challenge Certificates and by winning three of these “tickets” under three different judges means that your dog will be entitled to the accolade of CHAMPION.Īt All-Breed Championship Shows all dogs have to be placed onto benches and chained to the back of the bench for safety. Classes restricted by wins of a dog for example- Beginners, Post-Graduate. There are about several classes your dog may be eligible for some classes are restricted by age and some by the amount of winning a dog has achieved.Īge-restricted classes are - Minor Puppy Puppy Junior Veteran. ĭogs under 6 months of age may not be exhibited at shows in the UK. You must always carry your poop-scoop bag and clear up any mess made by your dog. All dogs must be kept on a lead whilst in the show-ring and in the area of the showground. All dogs must be benched at a general Championship Show. At Championship Shows the ring numbers are usually fixed at the top of the benches. At open shows, the steward will give you your ring number which you must wear whilst exhibiting your dog. At the show you may collect your Catalogue which lists all the dogs entered in a particular class.
Then send off your entry form with the appropriate fee. You will probably want the help of somebody who has exhibited before as it can be a bit muddling at first. Fill out the entry form with the Kennel Club details of your dog.
First you must apply for a Schedule of the Show from the Show Secretary or they can usually be picked up at shows.
