Great news! Our shows have been in Kenner at the Pontchartrain Center since 2008! Due to major renovations for a new basketball team, we had to find a new home for this summer’s shows. We are moving to the beautiful Center in Westwego right across the Huey Long bridge. We will be posting hotel blocks very soon that we would appreciate your taking advantage of the low rates. This helps us to secure venues in the future. We will still offer reserved grooming. Electric in free grooming will cost $30.00 per extension cord for the event. RV parking will be $30 per day (dry docked). We are hoping to offer electric hook ups through an added generator, but more to come on that after Jazz Fest. Follow us for updates as they come available. We hope to see you at our shows July 30, 31, August 1 & 2!

Merry Christmas from all of us at Pro Plan Show Dogs! This season, we’re grateful for the dedication, discipline, and passion that define the show dog community. From early mornings at the grooming table to unforgettable moments in the ring. Here’s to the dogs that inspire us, the people who stand behind them, and another year of excellence, tradition, and shared victories.
