The four day event includes breed championship shows, obediance trials, breed rally trials and canine good neighbor testing.

There is even a category for puppies who are just getting their ‘paws’ wet in the world of dog shows.

Blow driers, clippers and cooling fans were set up amongst the tents and motorhomes to accomodate any of the canine’s grooming requirements.

Visitors are welcome to addend the free event but are asked to leave their pups at home.
