Versatile Beardie Showcase & Dinner at the Stockyard!
Thursday, October 8
Host Hotel
Event Chair: Dawn Mieras
If you are attending the National Specialty through Thursday, October 8 and have a versatile Beardie titled in three or more activities, you’re invited to participate in the Versatile Beardie Showcase! This special event is free of charge and will take place in conjunction with the Dinner at the Stockyard.
The dinner will be a fabulous Tex-Mex feast. Tickets for the dinner will be on the Master Registration Form.
One hour prior to dinner, we will gather in the ballroom, where a cash bar will be available and participants will have the opportunity to showcase their versatile Beardies. During the Showcase, our wonderful MC (Larry Furlow) will introduce each dog by name, kennel name, owner/handler, breeder, and the activities in which they have earned titles to achieve their Versatile Beardie designation. Owners/handlers will then take a lap around the ring with their dog(s) as they are introduced, and a list of these Versatile Beardies will be provided.
The titles need not be an AKC designation. For example, it could be a UKC title. If your dog has earned any titles inclusive of AKC or outside of AKC, they count. The titles or designations just need to be in 3 different activities, performance, etc. And, yes, you can enter more than one dog.
An entry spot will be provided on the Master Registration Form. Please feel free to reach out to Dawn if you have any questions.
