More info:

·      This dog show is one of the most fun of the year with great vendors, herding demonstrations, agility competition, and plenty of opportunity to meet and greet all sorts of dogs at the breed booths sponsored by the local dog clubs

·      Our booth will require a lot of help from club members as we need Havanese and their owners to staff the booth in two-three hour shifts

·      Breeders, groomers, etc.:  please send us your business cards as this year we will have a business card holder and not a year has gone by without several Havanese finding new homes because of this breed booth (what can we say, our breed sells itself!)
