Quote from the KC site

The Kennel Club has liaised with overseas Kennel Clubs and nominated specific awards at particular Shows in each of the overseas countries entitled to take part in the UK PETS Travel Scheme, as qualification for Crufts 2004.

The qualifying dogs will be the winners of the following classes:

Junior Dog
Junior Bitch
Best Dog
Best Bitch

Therefore, four dogs of each breed will qualify for Crufts 2004 at each nominated Show. This will apply to any breed that is recognised by the Kennel Club. Crufts will provide award cards for each of these winners (to be presented by the organisers of each nominated Show) and a copy of the card will be required with each entry for Crufts to verify the qualification.

ENTRIES CLOSE ON FRIDAY, 2 JANUARY, 2004

OVERSEAS CRUFTS 2004 QUALIFYING SHOWS (TO DATE)

The Kennel Club for each country has been contacted to nominate one major Show as their representative Show. Qualification for Crufts is not limited to residents of the particular country therefore a dog not qualifying at its own National Show could endeavour to qualify at a Show in another country.

N.B. Information correct at time of going to press - May 2003

In order to show your dog in the UK (and at Crufts), your dog must either be already registered with the Kennel Club or you must have obtained an Authority to Compete (ATC) number from the Kennel Club. If you would like to receive further information, please complete your details and tick the relevant box at the back of this leaflet (please allow 28 days for processing).

N.B. Dogs with cropped ears are NOT eligible to compete at any Kennel Club licensed event.

Unless your dog has already been shown in the UK & qualified for Crufts at a championship show in the Uk

UK Kennel Club

I think that overseas Champions are automatically allowed entry too.
