The purpose of the Top Keeshond Event is to provide a single competition for the top ranking Keeshonden during the past year. It is an opportunity to showcase and appreciate some of the best individuals the Keeshond fancy has to offer. This year, we will offer both Top Keeshond and Best of Opposite Sex to Top Keeshond. A dog must be ranked in the top 25 Keeshond for the calendar year. In addition, if the top 5 ranking bitches do not appear on the above stated list, they will also be deemed eligible to compete. Tabulation for eligibility will be based on Keeshonden defeated as a result of Best of Breed and Best of Opposite Sex wins from January 1 through December 31 of the year preceding the competition. If your dog has qualified for the 2024 Top Keeshond Event, congratulations! To participate in this event, you’ll need to enter, which you can do on the form linked below. The entry fee is $65.00.
