The Detroit Kennel Club prides itself on a long tradition of breed education. To encourage our exhibitors to help us in this endeavor, the DKC offers cash prizes for both individual and breed club bench decorations that best exemplify the origin and purpose of a specific breed. Below are the 2008 winners.
