Notice
Supported Entry Schedule Update (2026)
In Brief
- There will not be an LCNW Supported Entry on Thursday, August 13, 2026.
- The LCNW Regional Specialty will still be held on Saturday, August 15, and the Olympic Kennel Club shows will take place August 14–16 as scheduled.
- Future Supported Entry opportunities will be considered, and member input is encouraged at the LCNW Annual Membership Meeting on August 15.
What Changed?
For many years, the Leonberger Club of the Northwest has hosted a Supported Entry in conjunction with the Mt. Rainier Working Dog Club during the week of our Regional Specialty. This gave exhibitors traveling to the Pacific Northwest the opportunity to compete in multiple consecutive shows leading up to and throughout the Olympic Kennel Club weekend, including the LCNW Regional Specialty.
The Mt. Rainier Working Dog Club has changed its 2026 show dates and will no longer hold shows on August 12–13. As a result, there will not be an LCNW Supported Entry on Thursday, August 13, 2026.
The Mt. Rainier Working Dog Club's 2026 shows have been rescheduled to November 27–30 in conjunction with the Greater Clark County Kennel Club shows on November 27–29 in Ridgefield, Washington. LCNW will not be holding a Supported Entry at those shows in 2026.
August Schedule

| August 12–13 | No Mt. Rainier Working Dog Club shows in Enumclaw (no LCNW Supported Entry) |
| August 14–16 | Olympic Kennel Club All-Breed Shows |

Looking Ahead
Future Supported Entry opportunities may be discussed at the LCNW Annual Membership Meeting on August 15. Member input is encouraged as we consider the location and timing of future Supported Entries.
