Showing dogs is a great sport where the thrill of competition is combined with the joy of seeing beautiful dogs.
Dog shows (conformation events) are intended to evaluate breeding stock. The size of these events ranges from large all-breed shows, with over 3,000 dogs entered, to small local specialty club shows, featuring a specific breed. The dog's conformation (overall appearance and structure), an indication of the dog's ability to produce quality puppies, is judged.
The Northstar Weimaraner Club held is Winter Specialty and Sweepstakes in conjunction with the Land O Lakes Kennel Club show in St. Paul, MN on January 7, 2011. We had a nice entry with majors in both dogs and bitches!
Great thanks to everyone who made the event a success!!
