Dear Open Senior Junior Showmanship coompetitors,
 
I want to thank you on behalf of PEDIGREE® for your continued support of the PEDIGREE® Junior Showmanship competition. The 2008 Crufts Dog Show in Birmingham, England will be the last year that PEDIGREE® is sponsoring the International Junior Handler competition  Unfortunately due to this change at the Crufts Dog Show, Mars Petcare US and the PEDIGREE® Brand can no longer offer the prize of the trip to the Crufts Dog Show for the Open Senior class after the 2008 Crufts Dog Show. Therefore, any results for Junior Showmanship classes in 2008 for Open Junior, Open Intermediate, Open Senior are no longer offered a prize from PEDIGREE®. I hope that you can understand our position as a company not being able to support non-PEDIGREE® sponsored events. BestJunior.com and I are exploring alternative solutions for Junior Showmanship competition sponsorship opportunities by PEDIGREE®.  Sincerely, Geoff Browne

Director of Sponsorships for Mars Petcare US

Dear Open Intermediate Junior Showmanship competitors,


I want to thank you on behalf of PEDIGREE® for your continued support of the PEDIGREE® Junior Showmanship competition. The 2007 World Dog Show in Mexico City, Mexico will be the last year that PEDIGREE® is sponsoring the World Dog Show. The governing body of the World Dog Show, the FCI, has entered into a multi-year sponsorship agreement with one of our competitors.


Unfortunately due to this change in the contractual sponsorship of the World Dog Show, Mars Pet Care USA and the PEDIGREE® Brand can no longer offer the prize of the trip to the World Dog Show for the Open Intermediate class after the 2007 World Dog Show. Therefore, any results for Junior Showmanship classes in 2007 for Open Intermediate or Open Junior are not offered a prize from PEDIGREE®.


I hope that you can understand our position as a company not being able to support non-PEDIGREE® sponsored events. BestJunior.com and I are exploring alternatives for the Open Intermediate as well as the Open Junior classes. The Open Senior Junior Showmanship competition is remaining unchanged.


Sincerely,

Geoff Browne

PEDIGREE National Show & Breeder Services Manager


     BestJunior will continue to track the Open Intermediate and Open Junior class competitors and at the end of 2007, the winner of each class will be awarded a special commerative rosette by BestJunior.   As explained above, Pedigree is not abandoning the Junior's Program, but current circumstances do not allow Pedigree to send Juniors to a World Dog Show the company is not sponsoring.
