We would like to share with you these top dogs who will travel the globe to compete in the Second Annual Eukanuba World Challenge being held in conjunction with the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship on December 13th & 14th, 2008.
If one of your breeds is listed as a competitor and you are also attending, we welcome the opportunity to have one of our local breeders play "host" to one of their fellow enthusiasts. You could help one of these International Guests by being "A Eukanuba Breed Smart Partner". They might need assistance in finding a grooming space, the need for a grooming table, since many won’t be able to travel with one, or just a chance to show the rest of the world how great the American Breeder/Exhibitors really are. Please contact me at: mlc@akc.org and I will make the connection for the breed you’re interested in hosting.
