St .Patrick's Day Show 2004
Without a doubt the Irish Kennel Club -Saint Patrick's Day International two day Championship Dog show has always been the most coveted and desirable show to win a group placing or BIS at for Irish exhibiters.Some times referred to as the "Irish Crufts",the show has traditionally been held annually on 17th March i.e. "Saint Patrick's Day" originally at the Balls Bridge complex in Dublin, since before we started showing in the late seventies and more recently in the new IKC owned National Show Centre at Cloghran near Swords.
