World Show breaks records!

Featured Written by Dino Muto
World Show breaks records!

Dino Muto President of ENCI, the Italian Kennel Club writes: What once seemed impossible has become reality. Surpassing the extraordinary entry figures of the 2015 World Show was initially considered beyond reach, especially given today’s complex global landscape.

And yet, the results speak for themselves: the World Dog Show in Bologna, together with its accompanying events, will welcome an incredible 30,700+ entries. The secret behind this achievement can be summed up in one powerful word: enthusiasm. From our dedicated breeders, specialised associations, and canine clubs, to all ENCI members and our valued institutional and commercial partners—above all Royal Canin—this shared passion has inspired dog enthusiasts from around the world.

Together, they will experience the unique thrill of an Italian World Show: the unmatched beauty of judging rings filled with healthy, exceptional dogs, and the opportunity to connect with some of the most renowned breeders and passionate experts shaping the future of the canine world.

WDS 2026 is more than an event—it’s a global celebration of dog breeding excellence. And the best is yet to come. Our team is working tirelessly to deliver an event of the highest standard, ensuring a seamless and unforgettable experience for all participants. For now, we extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this milestone possible.

See you in Bologna for the World Dog Show 2026!

OUR DOGS is the official media partner for the WDS and our stand is next to ENCI, near the main ring in Bologna.
