The Canadian Kennel Club is proud to announce the return of the CKC National Championship Dog Show, taking place Saturday, November 22, 2025, at the International Centre, in Mississauga, Ontario.
This premier event is a celebration of purebred dogs, conformation, and our community of breeders, owners, and handlers. After many years away, the CKC National Championship Dog Show returns as part of the Royal Canin Crown Classic National Championship Dog Show weekend (November 20 – 23, 2025), presented in partnership with Canadian Pet Expo, Royal Canin, and the Aurora & District Kennel Club.
At the CKC National Championship Dog Show, CKC members and the public will experience:
- Purebred dogs judged to official breed standards – highlighting how conformation is about structure, soundness, temperament, and purpose.
- The history and function of breed groups – from retrievers and terriers to hounds, herding, toys, working, and non-sporting breeds.
- Opportunities to connect with breeders, exhibitors, and judges while celebrating Canada’s purebred dogs.
- Exclusive CKC member experiences – including a free CKC gift for the first 300 visitors at our booth and a chance to be featured on CKC’s social media by sharing a selfie at our photo booth!
- Special admission offer – use promo code CKC2025 for $4.00 off adult online single-day admission to the Canadian Pet Expo (valid Saturday, November 22 and Sunday, November 23 only).
Whether you’re in the ring, in the audience, or enjoying the festivities, you’ll be part of the celebrated return of the CKC National Championship Dog Show. |
