WHO WON WHAT WHERE: MID-JUNE TO LATE JULY
e have a lot of results in this
issue — this report spans 172
all-breed shows held over five
weekends between the third weekend of
June and the third weekend of July. All
these shows made for a total of more
than 145,000 dogs entered, but many
shows were small: There were 28 shows
that drew fewer than 500 dogs, while only
two attracted more than 2,000.
The number of dogs defeated to earn
Group placements were terribly small
in some cases. It has become extremely easy to get a major in many breeds,
what with the small entries in so many
shows. Looking at the numbers required
for Hounds in my own division (Illinois,
Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin), it
only takes four to make a major in dogs
in 24 breeds, and in bitches in 23 breeds.
For example, it only takes four bitches
to make a major in Afghan Hounds in
my division!
The third weekend in June consisted
of 33 events held in 13 cities, with 27,386
dogs entered. The weekend involved a
six-show circuit and a four-show cluster
(which provided the largest entries per
event of the weekend), and three threeshow clusters. The average entry among
these 33 events was 830 dogs.
The fourth weekend of June offered
a whopping 41 shows in 15 venues,
attracting 30,708 dog entries. A marathon circuit of eight shows took place
in three different Montana cities. There
were also four four-show clusters and a
three-show grouping. The average entry
for this weekend was just 749 dogs.
Thirty-two events took place in 10
locations on the weekend spanning the
end of June through the July Fourth holiday. With nearly 27,500 entries involved,
the average entry was about 860. A fiveshow cluster, two four-show groupings
and five clusters consisting of three
shows were held.
The second weekend of July saw the
only large entries in this report, with the
Texas KC and Trinity Valley KC shows
in Dallas each attracting about 2,000
dogs and the Saturday Ann Arbor KC
show coming close to 2,000. We find
one five-show cluster, one cluster with
four events, and three clusters of three
shows contributing to the weekend total
of more than 28,500 entries. The average
entry was more than 1,000 dogs, a total
we would like to see more often.
Finally, the third weekend of July
provided 38 events held in 12 venues. With a total of more than 31,200
dogs, the largest weekend total in this
month’s report, only seven of these
shows attracted more than 1,000 dogs,
and the average entry was about 820.
We count six four-show clusters, and
two more with three shows.
