Specialties

American Kennel Club-sponsored specialty dog shows feature just a single breed. Annually, there are about 2,000 national, regional, and local specialties. The Schipperke Club of America (CSC’s parent club) holds the national specialty annually, usually in April. Showing at the national specialty is by invite only, and CSC is proud to have had a few of our Schips over the years invited. 

CSC hosts two specialities annually, one in April in West Friendship, MD and one October in Frederick, MD. Members and non-members alike attend to watch friends and their Schips show and offer encouragement, while enjoying watching and spending time with this beautiful breed.

For those interested in learning more about our Specialties or showing in general, please contact Katharine Baptiste.
