Exciting
news for open shows!
To
promote increased awareness, interest and involvement in the
vast UK
mainland network of General and Group Open Shows, we believe
are so vital to
our sport, Hills Pet Nutrition and OUR DOGS have combined
to create a
major new competition – the OPEN SHOW LEAGUE.
OUR DOGS readers will, as never before, be able to chart the
progress
of winning exhibits, with added interest, as the dog showing
year unfolds.
Updated results (top 20+) will be published in OUR DOGS newspaper
on
a fortnightly basis and the full league table will
be displayed on this website
– regularly updated as the results come in from show
organisers.

In
the event of a tie, the number of exhibits at the shows concerned
will
be taken into account to achieve a clear leader where possible.
Please
note that wins recorded at Breed Shows, Sub Group Shows and
all Championship Shows are excluded from this particular competition.
Only
BIS, RBIS and BPIS at OPEN SHOWS that cater for at least one
group are included, whether or not they are judged on the group
system.
Important
notice to show organisers
Show organisers are asked to supply, at their earliest convenience,
full
written details of BIS, RBIS and BPIS ie for each of the
three awards we
require:- 1. Name of dog. 2. Breed. 3. Name and address
of owner.
Please also confirm the total number of exhibits at the
show, as this
information may be required in the event of a tie-break
situation.
The
co-operation of show organisers is greatly appreciated
and the
details supplied will be entered onto our website together
with the date of
the show and society name to give your event additional
publicity.
