Welcome to BestJunior.com©

CORRECTIONS: All statistical corrections for Jan'09 - Dec'09 must be made before January 30, 2010, after which time, no adjustments will be made on the 2009 standings. 

Here is the  link  to the AKC site to check show results.  Just type in the show, or change the time range to the whole month and hit search. There is no excuse to not keep track of your show record, as the AKC has updated the Junior Show results to show individual class entry and total Junior entry.

The events search uses the same data base from which our electronic report is derived, so any errors in the results will be carried over to our report.

I can not stress this enough:  IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF EACH INDIVIDUAL JUNIOR TO MAINTAIN THIER OWN SHOW RECORD and not rely solely on BestJunior to do this for you, Your cooperation in this matter will ensure accurate statistics for year end rankings and the correct  presentation of rosettes.
