The 2025 National Specialty Trophy Fund is open! Trophy sponsorships cover the cost of the fabulous prizes and rosettes we are offering. Any placement at a National Specialty is a very big deal! We want to honor all who earn one with a keepsake. Recognition at a National is worthy of prizes that the winners will keep and use or admire for many years to come, with good memories of a special win or placement.
Click on the link below to view all available opportunities. You may offer any trophy in memory of deceased dogs or people or in honor of a living person or dog. (AKC Rule: Ribbons/Prizes In Honor Of, AKC March 1995 Board meeting; amended November 2017)
We also greatly appreciate donations to the General Trophy Fund. Thank you for your support!
