Top 20 - Performance

As stated in our breed standard, Bouviers possess all the qualities that have proven them to be formidable performance dogs. Their characteristics of strength, vigor, agility and keen intelligence have made them well suited to both traditional and non traditional performance sports. One way to recognize those dogs that have excelled in the use of these traits is the Performance Top Twenty recognition event.

A Performance Top Twenty recognition event will be held at the National Specialty. This event will recognize the extraordinary dogs competing in performance sports during the competition year.  Some of the benefits to this program are:

1. An opportunity to showcase the top performance dogs at the national level.
2. Encourage increased participation in performance sports.
3. Give the membership an opportunity to become more familiar with the top performance dogs in the different sports.

The Performance Top Twenty recognition event will be held annually at the National Specialty before the Top Twenty conformation competition, on the same evening. Each of the 20 qualifying dog would be introduced to the audience and their accomplishments of that competition year would be announced.
