This is just a little club competition where we can recognize the nicest dog who regularly participates in our fun shows. It gives each of us an incentive to work with and condition our dogs….thus spending more time bonding with them. You have fun and your dog stays in shape! In order for dogs to be eligible to win he/she must participate in at least six (6) out of eleven (11) fun shows. Your dog need not be registered with the American Dog Breeders Association (ADBA) to participate, however our conformation fun shows are judged according to the ADBA conformation standard. We pride ourselves with guest judges each and every month who know and understand the ADBA conformation standard. They may be retired ADBA judges, have personal experience in the show ring, or they may be established breeders of the American Pit Bull Terrier. Our fun shows are about just that….FUN! Our Top Dog Contest is about good-hearted fun and good sportsmanship. You win a simple but nice award and get the honor of going in the record books as Mid Florida’s Top Dog winner or runner-up. Points will be awarded according to the following point system: 3rd place 1 point 2nd place 2 points 1st place 3 points Best Puppy 5 points Best of Opposite 7 points Best of Show 10 points Our first Top Dog Contest was back in 2004 and was won Lil Big Up owned by Reid Hutches.
