Club Show / Club Match / Clubschau

This show is for every OES Club the most important show of the year. Beside the regular classes there will also be special classes like Baby or Amateur. Alongside the beauty show there are also fun events like the Bobtail - Rally and of course the contact between the members of the club is very important. This is an ideal show to start your show career or to visit a dogshow if you are interested in a certain breed.
Information about dates and about the venues can be found at the respective OES Club.

Euro-OES Show

For the "Bobtail Community" the Euro-OES Show is the most important event of the year. Mostly held at the "Whit Sunday weekend " there is often an organized excursion on the Saturday and on Sunday there will be the show. On the evenings there are festivities and dinners and at the Gala Evening on Sunday there is a big party to celebrate the Show. The good-bye breakfast on Monday morning is the finish of the event.

The Euro OES show takes place every year in a different country and besides the exhibitors there are more visitors each year from all parts of the world who attend this event. The main judge is normally the Crufts judge of the following year, who is asked to name a co-judge who will be invited to judge some of the classes as well. Often there are more than 150 OES entered.
