I was considering on hosting maybe a few All Breed shows and quite a few specialty shows for different (popular) breeds on a regular basis. I was considering on doing it for potential monetary gain. I use to do it for my breed, that is when it was a lot more competitive, however it was for mostly fun but I took a lost. Just was wondering if investing money into shows are worth it, both from an All Breed and Specialty stand point.

I don't think any of the breeds give you money back, at least none in my experience thus far. Not sure about all breed shows. |

If you do the math,you'll see it is not, it is for prestige mostly. Which was why I suggested to also reduce the number of shows per day...can't have everything. |

You will not make money from specialties. You do however have a shot at making a money with all breeds. I sponsor all breeds when there are some available for $400. I make the entry fee $20. If you get lucky and get a owner handler judge, you can make $$. I sponsored one all breed that made over $1100 last week. Usually, I break even or make a few extra bucks. But when the stars line up just right... you can double your money. And before anyone complains about $20 shows... Noone has to enter them and there are always cheaper shows on the same day. And if you are lucky enough to get a good group placement or a show placement, show pay outs are really nice in $20 entry shows. Since entries are usually lower in expensive shows, It also opens windows for breeds that normally dont take BIGs to get them! Will |

Thanx for the input. I did a all breed show... so depending on how it goes will determine future shows. |
