From a single show in 1891, Crufts is now the world’s greatest dog event.
Started by Charles Cruft, the show has grown from London’s Royal Agricultural Hall to a global celebration of dogs at the NEC in Birmingham. From its first BBC broadcast in 1950 to becoming a year-round brand in 2025, Crufts continues to honour every role dogs play in our lives.
Are you joining us at Crufts this year?

With the Scottish election approaching, the Royal Kennel Club has launched The Dog People’s Manifesto - a clear, evidence-led vision calling on government to put dog health and welfare first.
The Manifesto highlights the need to:
• Support responsible, home-based dog breeding with proportionate regulation
• Protect genetic health by taking a balanced approach to puppy imports
• Improve the health of flat-faced breeds through welfare-first breeding decisions
• Rethink dangerous dogs legislation with a focus on behaviour, education and early intervention
• Introduce a swift ban on electric shock collars, in line with public and professional consensus
Read the full Manifesto and learn more about our canine health initiatives at www.facebook.com/groups/1785119672116531.
