Contests at The Great KC Pet Expo

 

The Ultimate “Stay” Contest

Can your dog “Stay”? Really, really “Stay”? If so, you might have the winner of the Ultimate Stay Contest. It’s a test of will and obedience and as we have the handlers put their dogs in a “Stay” command, then we start adding distractions. Rolling tennis balls, treats, noises, all the while moving the handlers farther from the dogs. You can win $100 CASH for great behavior in the Ultimate “Stay” Contest!

Open to amateurs only, please. No trainers or service dogs. Register on site.

“Leave It” Contest

If we put a small piece of a hot dog in front of your dog, could he/she “Leave It” on your command? It’s fun to see which dog has the best will power as we test behavior and training skills in the “Leave It” Contest. Even the crowd gets in the act with this Contest as we search for our 2018 Leave It Champion! Oh, and did we mention that 1st place will receive $100 CASH!?!

Open to amateurs only, please. No trainers or service dogs. Register on site.

Costume Contest

The competition gets bigger every year and the costumes get cuter and more creative as we celebrate the Halloween season with our Homemade Costume Contest. Bring your friends and cheer on your favorite best dressed pet!

Naughty Dog Challenge

Does your dog come when called? Even when distracted? Well let’s just see about that! The Great Indy Pet Expo Naughty Dog Contest puts obedience skills to the test when there are toys, treats, bowls, people, and other reasons to ignore you and play instead. Want to give it a try? 2018 bragging rights are at stake!
