🎖️ * Owner Participation: Owners should be present and engaged with their dogs throughout the show. It's not a competition for professional handlers; it's about the bond. Dog Show Categories (Themed, of Course!):

🎖️* Best "The Dude" Award. For the chillest dog, laid-back, easygoing, and just goes with the flow.

🎖️* Best "Walter Sobchak" Award. For the boldest pup, confident, spirited, and always ready to stand their ground.

🎖️* Most "Nihilist" Dog: For the pup who couldn't care less, unimpressed, aloof, and abides in their way.

🎖️* Best "Maude Lebowski" Canine Artist: For the most artistic or expressive dog, full of personality, creativity, and maybe just a little bit dramatic.

🎖️* "Jesus Quintana" Smoothest Strutter: For the flashiest, most over-the-top pup, struts their stuff with flair and isn’t afraid to show off.

🎖️* Best "Donny" Dog (Quietest/Most Confused): For the most unassuming, quiet, or easily bewildered dog.

🎖️* "The Big Lebowski" Grand Champion. The best in show, the all-around top dog who truly ties the whole festival together.

🎖️Best “Bunny Lebowski” Dog. For the most glamorous, eye-catching pup, a real showstopper with style and flair that demands attention.

🎖️” Stray Spirit Award”. Honoring the rescue or adopted dog whose journey reflects resilience, heart, and the abiding spirit of second chances.

🎖️” Little Larry Sellers” Award. For the dog who throws the biggest tantrum, the most dramatic, the most spoiled. Or maybe their flunkin’ social studies.
