The Westminster Kennel Club is a longstanding nonprofit organization dedicated to the sport and celebration of dogs. Based in New York, it stages the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, a premier all-breed event that has become a major national televised fixture since 1948 and a focal point for breed preservation and responsible dog ownership. The club’s work centers on showcasing purpose-bred dogs and preserving each breed’s distinct heritage, while promoting humane human–canine relationships and conformation excellence through its Westminster Week and related canine competitions.
Since its founding in 1877, the organization has expanded its activities to include agility and other canine skills disciplines, inviting participation from elite dogs as well as mixed-breed competitors under the Masters Agility Championship. Its audience includes dog enthusiasts, breeders, handlers, judges, veterinary professionals, and international participants drawn to a global showcase of canine talent. Recent developments include the launch of the Sensation Stage in 2026 and ongoing partnerships with industry partners to support the show and its programs.
