I usually retire a dog after it’s finished its championship and has produced a couple litters (generally around 120 days old)

I retire them after they no longer serve a purpose for bettering my kennel.

If they aren't winning in the ring and not being bred, I find a FH.

If they are producing poorly, I find a FH.

I try to rotate out my older stock as soon as the new generation is proving out.

The two largest American dog shows after Westminster are the National Dog Show (which is televised on Thanksgiving Day by NBC, usually after the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade) and the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship.
