This competition is for dogs and owners resident in Wales, the dogs must have won a first prize in a junior breed class at any general Championship show, Breed Club Championship or Open Show, or a junior class at any general Open Show held under Kennel Club rules.
This competition is for dogs and owners resident in Wales aged over 7 years old. There are separate classes for dogs and bitches.
This competition is for Welsh resident handlers to compete for the coveted title of Junior Handler of the Year. There are three age grouped categories. Handlers must be aged between 6 years and 24 years of age, to qualify you only need to be resident in Wales.
The organisers of this ever popular event is giving notice that regrettably we have had to make the most difficult decision to cancel the Welsh Junior/Welsh Veteran of the Year competition that was to be held on 27 February 2021.
This decision is due to the COVID-19 Pandemic which has had a detrimental effect on the whole Dog Show calendar for this year which in turn had had an obvious adverse effect on the qualifying period to the Welsh Junior/Welsh Veteran competition. As a result of the pandemic we felt it only fair to all exhibitors to cancel next year’s competition with a view to holding the next competition in February 2022 which will place all exhibitors on a fair and level playing field.
The organisers and myself share your disappointment and sadness that the competition must be cancelled however all being well the next competition will take place on Saturday 26 February 2022 at the Royal Welsh Showground, Builth Wells.
