The British Utility Breeds Association will be holding its annual prestigious Championship Dog Show for all utility breeds on the 6^th December 2008. Top dogs from the local area will go head to head against other leading dogs from the length and breadth of the country, to win a Champion title.

The show will return to its permanent venue of the Stafford Show Ground, Weston Road, Stafford, ST18 0BD, after a three year absence. The decision to return to the Stafford Show Ground has proved popular as the entry for the show is up this year, attracting a bumper entry of 1,841 dogs.

All competitors will be competing for the highly coveted ‘Best in Show’ award, with the successful class winners qualifying to compete at the greatest and largest dog show in the world, Crufts, held annually at the NEC, Birmingham.

There will be plenty to entertain the general public, from watching the judges make their difficult decisions, to seeing the happy and healthy dogs with their owners first hand. With Christmas just around the corner, the show will also warmly welcome visitors with a festive theme, including decorated Christmas trees. Visitors will enjoy browsing the trade stands at the show which will sell a variety of gifts for dogs and people alike, providing the perfect opportunity to purchase some gifts for Christmas.

A Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme Ring will also be set up to offer competitors the opportunity to take part and achieve their Bronze Award Certificate as part of the UK’s largest dog training programme.
