Crufts Dog Show (Birmingham) Reviews
Newest Review: ... for the dog sections where each breed of dog has a representative- there are rows and rows of little booths each with a few examples of that breed of dog. This is brilliant to show all the types of dog and the dog handlers are on site to answer breed secific questions. There is a breeders section for people who go to Crufts to make contacts to look at buying digs too. There are also sections for charities such as Guide Dogs for the Blind, Dogs for the Disabled and Cancer Detection Dogs. They put on displays and have people on hand again to answer queries. There are trade halls (I counted two full halls) of stalls full of dog attire... more

I'm not really a "Dog" person. I prefer cats if I have to make the choice. But, my husband really wants a Beagle (like Snoopy), so we decided to visit Crufts in March at the Birmingham NEC. We bought our tickets online and they were a very reasonable £17 for a day ticket. The event is on for four days and each day has a different dog theme- ie Working and pastoral/ Toy and Utility/ Gundogs. The NEC is huge. Crufts filled around 5 arenas.

You will walk for miles just walking around the arenas. ... Read the complete review

There are hundreds of rings with dog breeds getting judged in, stalls in all the arena halls selling any doggy related product you can think of and many other things, the discover dogs section has owners with their dogs for I think all the KC ...

***** Crufts ***** It was only a matter of time before I commented on the "World's Greatest Dog Show" and here it is. Indeed, it does exactly what it says on the tin - dog's and people from around the world, it's the greatest as there's no substitute for the luxurious green carpet, it has dogs and it's a show. Well, that's it then. Review finished. Actually, I think not. It's incomprehensible how much is crammed into the NEC in the four days that Crufts runs. Having been last year, mother and I decided that this would be our holiday this year - we're not the saddest people in the world - it's just not that cheap, especially with ...
