Community members can look forward to the end of the week as the Prince George Kennel Club will host it’s 19th annual Dog Show.
The show will have three events including confirmation, rally and obedience where dogs go through judging, and different obstacles.
Member Dawn Trusty said this event will have competitors outside of PG.
“They’re from everywhere, from as far as the States, Alberta, Southern BC, I believe there’s some coming from Saskatchewan.”
“We travel a very long way to come to shows, and we have basically kind of a circuit that we follow in achieving our points towards our dogs.”
Trusty added that shows like these take a year to put together, and have already hired judges for next year.
President Karin Beeler said this year will have around 130 dog entries for each confirmation show, with around 30 entries for each trial of rally obedience on Saturday, and around 25 on Sunday.
They encourage anyone coming to watch the show to not bring their dogs, as only dogs registered in the show are allowed.
The Dog Show will be at the Prince George Agriplex from 9am to approximately 4:30pm from Thursday to Sunday, and is free to attend.
