A Message From Westminster Kennel Club Co-Show Chairmen – January 1, 2022

Dear Conformation Exhibitor,

     A complete refund of all January 2022 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show entries is currently being processed. Although the venue and date of our 2022 show have yet to be determined, the Club is pleased to announce that all entries accepted for the January 2022 event will be given “invited” status for the purpose of entering the postponed show. As a result, there will be no change in the respective qualifying periods for the 2022 or 2023 shows.

     The intention of the Club is to invite all prior entrants to submit a new entry for the postponed show, prior to the receipt of entries from previously non-entered participants. This includes all breed, obedience, and junior handlers. Please note that breed and obedience entries are “dog specific.” Juniors who qualified and were entered will be invited again, regardless of age. No substitutions allowed. Following the processing of all those invitees who submit valid entries, additional entries will be accepted until the show limit is reached.

     Further details regarding the 2022 show and full instructions for entering will appear in a revised and forthcoming premium list.

Sincerely,

David W. Haddock & David A. Helming

Co-Show Chairmen
