Easter show dog breeds

[OddOneOut]

Hi thankyou for letting me join. I hope its ok to ask the question here, im getting 2 confused trying to find the information regarding dog breed days at the easter show on the website. I thought maybe you might be able to help. I havnt been to the show in a long time and not sure if they still do the dog breed stalls where you meet the breeds? If they do i would love to go on a day where the have alaskan malamutes, karelian bear dogs. TIA

Malamutes are on Sunday 20 April.  I can't find any reference for Karelian sorry

[Mairead]

I couldn't see any mention of Karelian in the Dog Schedule. The two that are in the Breed Index pages here are in Tasmania and Queensland so may not have put an entry in. 

The Meet the Breed Display is on Tuesday 22nd. 

If you go to the Events page here you will be able to see when other dog conformation shows are on, and where (location and start time will be in the schedule, pdf)

Do they not do the thing anymore where each day its different dog breeds in the room?

On the 'meet the breed day' do you know what breeds are there?

Thankyou @Mairead for letting me know about the events page.

What group are the kbd in? Every breed is named initially but does not mean they have an entry. If they are not in the catalogue there isn't an entry.

[Mairead]

There is one male KBD entry in the Non-Sporting Group. It is not one of the two in the breed pages here. You would have to phone the RAS dog section and ask the day it is judged. That group classification is judged in the morning, the FCI (=international) breeds are judged in the afternoon of the same day. It may have a different group classification under that system. [Edit: Group 5 Spitz and Primitive Breeds]

Which breeds attend the breed stall day depends on clubs and volunteers deciding to attend. It is not compulsory.

Just checked again, KBD judged Sunday 20 April. Different judge for morning and afternoon judging. No time slots (unless it has changed), just a start time. 

Morning judging "not before 8:30 am" and "judging times on the glass doors [of] the administration office".

Thankyou everyone for your help its much appreciated. Ive decided not to attend. The whole point of me wanting to go was to meet the kbd in person and bonus if they had mals and other spitz on the same day like the old days when each day they had the room with different breeds to view and the breeders would be there happy to answer any questions. I wonder why they stopped doing that daily and only have one day now.
