SOUTH AFRICAN BRED INVITATIONAL BREED COMPETITION :

GROOMING
BREED SHOWING:
Grooming your pet is an extremely important aspect of responsible ownership. Come and watch the experts trimming, clipping, grooming and giving advice.Dog shows are a rewarding and social aspect of dog ownership. Many dog shows are organised around the country and The Kennel Union of S.A. will provide you with contact details for the various clubs whether it be for dog training, breed showing, dog breeders etc.
AGILITY
CARTING
The dogs love it, their owners love it and you'll love it too, so don't miss this exciting competition. This sport is great fun but does require a fit dog and handler. The sport is open to all breeds of dogs and dogs of any size can participate in the various sized categories. It focuses on the handler's ability to control and direct their dog accurately over a series of obstacles as quickly as possible. Agility is a fairly new sport in South Africa being introduced only in May 1998.

A demonstration of carting is one of the most popular displays at the show and is definitely a must for all visitors.

FLY BALL:
