All Breed Dog Show planned

Tails will be wagging at the Kootenai County Fairgrounds this Memorial Day as the Coeur d'Alene Dog Fanciers welcomes more than 1,000 fancy canines to its annual All Breed Dog Show.

Visitors can expect to see more than 120 different breeds of dogs, vendors of a variety of animal care products and feats of dog obedience. They will also be able to meet experts in the various breeds to address any problems or questions they may have about their dogs or those they might be considering purchasing.

The American Kennel Club-sanctioned show serves as a venue to evaluate breeding stock for structural soundness and conformation with breed standards. The procedures are similar to those used in 4-H to evaluate livestock.

The All Breed Dog Show takes place from 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday and 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Tuesday. It is open to the public with no entry fee and $5 parking. Info: www.cdadogfanciers.org
