Please join us for TWO SHOWS on the same day! GVFRRC will be hosting a Regional Specialty to be held in conjunction with Valley Forge Kennel Club's All-Breed show AND two GVFRRC members will be sponsoring a Supported Show in conjunction with Delaware Valley Hound Association's Limited Breed hound show.
Both shows are being held on the same day, at the same location - which means two chances for points, awards, and recognition under two different judges! There will also be puppy and veteran sweeps for the Regional show.
In addition to conformation, there is onsite rally, obedience, pee wee competitions, and health clinics. As in years past, we will also be planning for socializing, visit and snack between the two shows, in the Ridgeback crating area, with all of our Ridgeback friends. Don't forget to reserve your FREE CRATING space!
Hope to see you there!
The GVFRRC and its members will host a social luncheon - open to members and prospective members.
The social generally is scheduled closer to the show date, between the Ridgeback ring times for the VFKC and DVHA shows.
Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available! If you have any questions about the event, please use the "Contact Us" form!
