Time runs fast! The second deadline for registrations for the 2026 World Dog Show has also been reached: about 18,000 registrations confirm, already to date, the great trust that breeders and owners from all over the world are placing in our work. A trust that we are determined to repay with the utmost organizational care and punctual attention to the needs of all participants.
I remind you that further deadlines are planned: the next one on April the 2nd and the last one on May the 4th, 2026.
We are working to create an event capable of combining a very high technical profile with a great moment of meeting and sharing for the entire international dog community. The program, in fact, will combine the judgments in the ring with group sports competitions, special events and numerous collateral activities, designed both for operators in the sector and for the public and enthusiasts.
Among the many initiatives planned, there will also be the possibility of taking the CAE-1, a simple test that certifies the reliability and psychic balance of the dog and the correct management by the handler: an important tool to promote the figure of the dog and the owner as good citizens. All dogs will be able to access the test by registering on the prove.enci.it platform, which will be opening shortly..
For information on registrations, regulations and official updates, you can consult the official information channels on the official WDS 2026 website.
