The International Pedigree Kennel Club (IPKC) celebrated its debut dog show on August 30, 2026, at O’Brien’s Park in Limerick. Founded by Kenneth Woodland, the organization was established to provide an accessible pedigree registration service for dog owners across Ireland. The event served as a major community gathering, bringing together local dog owners, families, and canine enthusiasts for a day of competition and celebration.

The show featured a diverse array of competition categories to ensure inclusion for many types of dogs. Participants entered their pets into pedigree, mixed-breed, puppy, adult, rescue, veteran, exotic, and novelty classes. These various segments culminated in the presentation of the Best in Show award, recognizing the top participant of the event.

Supported by the Limerick City and County Council, the success of this first show has prompted the IPKC to plan for national expansion of its registration services. The club intends to continue hosting community-centered canine events in the Midwest region, building on the foundation established during this first successful outing in Limerick city.
