If there’s one place where you’ll find Australia’s finest purebred pedigree dogs, well-behaved and primed to perfection, it’s the Sydney Royal Dog Show which will be held at Sydney Olympic Park from April 6 until April 19.

Sponsored by Purina Pro Plan, the Sydney Royal Dog Show is supported by Dogs NSW, the controlling body of pure bred dog breeding and exhibiting in NSW, and is the biggest and most prestigious canine competition in the country. The event is a popular part of the Sydney Royal Easter Show, the largest event in the Southern Hemisphere organised by the Royal Agricultural Society of NSW.

This year, the Purina Pro Plan Sydney Royal Dog Show is expected to attract thousands of entries across Conformation, Agility, Obedience, Junior Handling and Sweepstakes classes during the 14 days of competition – all vying to be crowned best in their breed and discipline, said Brian Crump, Dogs NSW spokesperson.

“The Sydney Royal Dog Show showcases excellence in the dog world, setting the competitive benchmark for canine competitions nationally,” said Mr Crump. “The show also recognises the important role of Australian National Kennel Council-registered breeders in developing quality, sound, healthy puppies for Australian families, and promotes public understanding of the place of domestic animals in our community.”

This year, Dogs NSW will run ‘Ask the Breeders’ forums featuring Dogs NSW members who will speak to the public about their breed, the many benefits of purchasing puppies through a Dogs NSW breeder, and how to locate ethical and credible breeders of healthy dogs. 

“Dogs NSW actively promotes efforts to ensure that the public is educated, understands the demands of responsible ownership and have access to healthy, well-bred dogs that are right for them,” said Mr Crump.

“Given the ongoing demand for puppies, public education about choosing a pure breed suitable for their lifestyle and finding a responsible ANKC-registered breeder are paramount in stamping out irresponsible dog breeders and keeping dogs out of shelters and in homes where they belong.”


There will be showbags and daily competitions for everybody and their dog! Dogs NSW Information Stand will be selling showbags packed with goodies for dogs and their humans. The showbags sponsored by Nestle Purina, Lucky Dog, Advocate, Love 'em and Masterpet are valued at $60 and are selling for $18.

Dogs NSW is also running a guessing competition with a mega prize valued at $750 to be won every day for 14 days!


Competition prizes include:
Pod GPS Pet Tracker by Pod, FitBark by PetSure, Pro Plan dog food and toys by Nestle Purina and products from NoVac, Delete, Bayer, Oakwood, Love’Em, Vetalogica, Koly’s Dog Treats, Nana’s Teddies, Champet and 4DogPaws.

Sporn Marrow Chew Bone

The Sporn Marrow Chew Bone (originally called the Yuppie Puppy ) is a jerky-flavour filled chewable nylon bone, which promises to control tartar and plaque, assisting with your dog's dental health. After putting it to the test for a number of years with our three Belgian Shepherds, we can attest that it is great for the toughest of chewers and may even save some of your furniture or shoes. Especially recommended during the puppy phase, when your dog is constantly teething and needs something to chew. Chewing this bone is similar to brushing their teeth. As the nylon shreds, it becomes like bristles, removing tartar and plaque build-up from the teeth. These interactive dental chew toys are unique to most other flavoured nylon bones as the marrow is added after the bone has been moulded and cooled. After trialling other brands on the market, we found that the marrow makes the difference and keeps our dogs coming back for more. Our dogs can surely smell it long before they can t...

To make dog car travel easy get your dog used to riding in the car by taking him on short trips to start. If you get your dog as a puppy and anticipate it going in the car with you at all, start taking the dog with you in the car early in its life so he recognizes this as routine. The earlier a dog begins riding in the car, the faster they will learn how to behave on a trip. Some dogs get car sickness. If your dog is one who experiences this talk to your vet. Like medications that can help people avoid getting sick in the car, there are medications to help dogs with this situation.
