Award winners with blue and red ribbon results
Detailed spreadsheets with winners of all ribbons. Please note, this format incudes a column for points which CSDS uses for sweepstakes during their local show. This column was not used for the ADS National Show. Ignore President's Choice on these sheets as well. For 2025, President's Choice is recorded under Challenge results. Also, no 3rd place ribbons were awarded at the 2025 Show.
Of course there was a photo competition.
Wow - a great video of great pictures!
