What
Things does a Dog Show Have in Its Store for You
What
will be your state of mind if you happen to hear the word
“dog show”? Will you keep wondering as to what exactly
a dog show is or will you be ready to know more and enhance
your knowledge on various dog breeds?In real terms a dog show
is basically a competition or a tournament involving many
rounds to decide one winner dog based on many laid down procedures
and the dog thus found to be the winner will be aptly called
as “best in show”.
The first ever round will be the breed ring where similar
breed dogs will compete and based on various characteristics
and judging trials few of the participating digs will be selected.
Here
in this round each dog will be judged based on its respective
breed characteristics and to win in this round your dog should
fulfil some set standards that are specific to the breed to
which it belonged to. As the rules and regulations in this
breed specific round are very refined and defined, dogs that
are not conforming to the set standards will automatically
get eliminated.
For
example, the specific size of the dog belonging to a particular
breed such as Greyhound or Great Dane will be applied and
all the dogs that seems either bigger or smaller than the
stipulated size stand automatically disqualified.
Further,
there is also a possibility for any dog to get disqualified
in this round automatically if it doesn’t possess specific
characteristics of the breed they belong to. For instance
if a dog doesn’t possess the specific personality of
the breed, then it will get chucked out of the competition
at this stage itself.
How the Standards are Set?
Normally
the registries and breeding clubs set standards and the same
are followed in the competition. First, each and every dog
participant will be screened based on its sex and they will
be further segregated based on its sub class. For example,
you may have a puppy class, or bred by exhibitor class or
an open class within the same breed and there is also a possibility
of further breaking this group based on shape, anatomy and
color.
Once
the dogs are segregated, they will be judged for other features
and there will be one winner in each class. Again within the
class there will be two winners one for the male dog and the
other for female dog. Once the pair is chosen, this pair will
further participate with other members to win the coveted
“best in breed” honors. One dog from each category
or class will reach the semifinal round and compete with the
other set of dogs of the same group. Finally there will be
seven “best in show” dogs for crowning.
