Prior to July 2022, AKC required that Juniors own the dog they show in Junior Showmanship. One can assume the rule was in place to ensure Juniors were taking full responsibility for the dog they showed since Junior Showmanship is meant to give youngsters the opportunity to learn all facets of preparing and presenting show dogs. In July 2022 the American Kennel Club launched a pilot program to allow Juniors to participate in Junior Showmanship with dogs they do not own. AKC has given the policy that enabled the pilot program to happen permanency by making it a rule. As we all know, many rules, laws, etc. have unintended consequences.

“Why didn’t the club assign more breeds to me?” It’s a common lament I often hear from judges who may have fewer than 100 dogs assigned for the day. Often it’s with a small club that doesn’t have money to burn, yet half their panel is way under-assigned. At the same time, the same club may have one or two judges who are overdrawn. It looks like the Show Chair, or whoever was in charge of making breed assignments, fell down on the job. But as a Show Chair who has grappled year after year with the AKC’s Event Management page, I’m pretty sure I know exactly what happened: They didn’t so much fall down on the job as they simply gave up. And I can’t blame them.

If you’ve ever planned a dinner party for 12 people, you know that event planning involves a lot of moving parts and many, many things that need to be thought out in advance. First, you’ll need a detailed budget that will guide you in the rest of your choices. You need to nail down the menu early so that shopping and cooking schedules can be calendared, and that special dietary needs can be met for the guests you plan to invite. You need to plan your space well for optimum party flow, taking into account where the drink station/bar will be, where guests will dine, what you will use for dinner service and serving pieces, and how to keep them from clogging up the flow in and out of your kitchen. You’ll need to organize getting your home cleaned and polished up, planning the playlist, DJ, or band, getting the invitations out, reminding people to please RSVP, reminding them again; and of course you’ll have to deal with those people you love who miss the deadline, don’t seem to care about the inconvenience to you, and still expect to partake of your food, beverage, and hospitality.
