Hi,

Its been a few years since I have shown a dog but am planning to go to Crufts to cheer on a friend who is showing the litter brother of one of my dogs. I'm trying to work out what time I will roughly need to arrive, it says on the schedule the breed has a late start of 10am. Do Dogs or bitches get shown first, I cant remember?! I just remember it takes ages to get through them so I might be able to arrive later and do some shopping first!

Thanks

Dogs get shown first, so you'll need to be there for 10 am.  The traffic can be awful on the roads leading to the NEC - give yourself plenty of time to get there.

There is also a time after which dogs will not be accepted. Not sure when that is but I think it may be 11.00 oc

LOL sorry just read the original post again and it really does not matter as you are only taking yourself - senior moment.
