Questi punti e classifiche si basano esclusivamente sulle esposizioni gestite da ODS e non rappresentano il totale definitivo dei punti né la classifica finale della competizione.
The VDH, in collaboration with OnlineDogShows (ODS), is introducing a Top Dogs ranking. Points are awarded to dogs shown at international dog shows in Germany via a points system based on placings and qualifying titles.
*This show is not linked to the ODS system. Points earned there will not appear in the rankings and will only be taken into account and included when inviting qualified dogs.
Based on the points earned, rankings are determined for each FCI group. ODS records the respective points and publishes the ‘Top Dogs’ list on the ODS website, sorted by FCI group and breed, as well as separately for domestic and international entries.
The best German dogs in each FCI group will be invited to the ‘German Dog of the Year’ competition at the Bundessieger Show (Saturday) in 2027.
The best foreign dogs in each FCI group will be invited to the ‘Best International Dog Germany’ competition at the Bundessieger Show (Saturday) in 2027.
In both competitions, three finalists will be selected and presented at the VDH gala evening on 6 November 2027. The winners will then be announced there.
The ‘German Dog of the Year 2027’ will represent Germany at the FCI World Challenge 2028. They will receive a travel allowance of 1,000 euros for this. The winner will receive a trophy and be featured in the VDH magazine (cover story with interview).
The ‘Best International Dog Germany 2027’ will receive a petrol voucher worth 500 euros. The winner will receive a trophy and will be featured in the VDH magazine (in an article with an interview).
In addition, the top-placed dogs in each group will receive a high-quality certificate and a VIP package for the next VDH-Euroapsieger-Show in 2028 (free entry, VIP parking), and will be featured in the VDH magazine.
Points doubled at VDH title shows (Bundessieger Show, Europasieger Show, German Winner Show, Agria Trophy Show)
