9-12 March 2023, The NEC Birmingham

The greatest dog show on earth is back for 2023 and here at JULIUS-K9® UK we are very pleased to be in attendance at Crufts this year.

We are in the same stall as last year: Hall 1 Stand 1-8. So if you are The NEC Birmingham for the event than make sure you stop by and say hello.

Please remember that if your dog hasn’t been invited by The Kennel Club they are not permitted into the Crufts show.

 

The Show

This year will see 18,000 dogs competing across ten exhibitions over four days. As well as the competition there are various shows and displays that the whole family can enjoy, including the West Midlands Police Dog Display and the always popular Puppy Foundation Display.

The Good Citizen Dog Training scheme (GCDTS) also has a variety of shows across all four days. The GCDTS is the largest dog training programme in the UK and sets out to teach responsible dog ownership for everyday situations
