More Info on the Show:

The Capital Keeshond Club, as a member of The Keeshond Club of America is required to put on a "specialty" at least once each year. CKC is a regional kees club. A specialty is a "single" breed dog show that a club hosts, either in conjunction with an all-breed club or as a separate show just for kees. Specialties usually draw large entries for the breed. Other regional Kees clubs across the country also hold specialties throughout the year.
