Regional Specialty

Simply the Best . . . REGIONAL SPECIALTY . . . Monday, April 30, 2012

As part of our National Specialty week, New-Pen-Del is blazing a new trail by offering the first-ever Independent Regional Specialty to be held in conjunction with a National. Entry is limited to 600 Newfoundlands. The ring favors are adorable keepsakes, and the trophies include wonderful NCA logo items, 48" dog crates, and orthopedic beds, plus wonderful 48" fleece bolster beds for all veteran placements! Our hospitality team will be ringside all day serving up their hospitality, starting with early morning coffee and goodies. This will be a great opportunity to gain ring experience for your puppies, a refresher course for the veterans, and lots of breed points for those looking ahead to the 2013 Top Twenty.
