About Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show

The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show is America's most prestigious all-breed conformation dog show, held annually in New York City and organized by the Westminster Kennel Club — the oldest organization in the United States dedicated to the sport of dogs, established in 1877. The show takes its name from the Westminster Hotel in Manhattan, where a group of sporting gentlemen who were passionate hunters first gathered. Their inaugural event, the First Annual New York Bench Show of Dogs, was held on May 8, 1877, at Gilmore's Garden — the forerunner to Madison Square Garden — drawing an entry of 1,201 dogs across 35 breeds and proving so popular that it was extended from three days to four. The proceeds from the fourth day were donated to the ASPCA. One of only a handful of benched shows remaining in the United States, Westminster is the second-longest continuously held sporting event in America — second only to the Kentucky Derby — having survived the Great Depression, two World Wars, and a pandemic. The Westminster Kennel Club predates the American Kennel Club by seven years, and the show has been nationally televised since 1948. Dogs compete within their breeds and then within seven judging groups — Sporting, Hound, Working, Terrier, Toy, Non-Sporting, and Herding — with the seven group winners competing for the coveted title of Best in Show. Westminster Week draws nearly 3,000 dogs from across the United States and around the world.
