Each day’s activities include regular conformation, obedience and rally concluding with a Best in Show winner.

All-American Mixed Breeds enrolled in AKC’s Canine Partners Program may enter Obedience and Rally Competitions. Go to www.akc.org/ dog-owners/canine-partners/ for details.

Action starts Thursday morning. In addition to the regular activities is the National Owner-Handled Series, a non-titling competition allowing owners and their dogs to compete against their peers in their respective breeds, groups and NOHS Best in Show. Professional handlers cannot compete in this series.

On Friday we present the Best BredBy Exhibitor Competition. This is open to non-champion dogs, and the person handling the dog must be the owner or co-owner and breeder of the dog. For spectators this is an ideal way to see a particular breed and meet the breeder.

Saturday is a full day. We honor the older show dogs with a Best Veteran Competition. The Granite State Shetland Sheepdog Club of Southeast New Hampshire, Inc, the Pine Tree State Doberman Pinscher Club, Inc, and the Bearded Collie Club of America, Inc, will support their respective breeds during the day. And the Maine Golden Retriever Club will hold its Designated Specialty.

Watch puppies enter the ring for the first time in the 4 to 6 Month Beginner Puppy Competition. Offered only on Sunday, this competition introduces new exhibitors and their puppies ages 4 to 6 months of age. Another National Owner-Handled Series competition is offered. Also on Sunday, the Pine Tree State Doberman Pinscher Club, Inc and the Bearded Collie Club of America, Inc will support their respective breed entries.

We offer Junior Showmanship all four days. Open to children 9 to 18 years old, with Open, Intermediate and Novice classes, the child is judged on his/her ability to handle and present the dog rather than the dog being judged. Junior handlers must have an AKC Junior Handler number to compete at these shows.

Camping onsite is available. All RV parking is $40 per night which includes water and electrical hookup only. Tenting without hookups is $25 per night. Contact Pauline Goodwin at (207) 324-5400 or visit our websites to download a reservation form. Deadline for camping reservations is May 4, 2022.
