Mid-Ohio Dog Show Cluster

If you and your family love dogs, you’ll want to visit the Ohio State Fairgrounds and Expo Center in Columbus on November 13-16 for the 2025 Mid-Ohio Cluster Dog Shows. This family friendly event features four dog shows from kennel clubs throughout the Buckeye State and takes place inside the Bricker Building just south of 17th Avenue. More than 2,000 dogs from more than 150 dog breeds will strut their stuff in the show rings during Ohio’s largest indoor dog show cluster. Some of the top show dogs in the country will be competing to see who wins Best in Show each day. But the event is more than just about the competition. You can discover breeds you’ve never seen before, and find out more about the breeds you love. You can also learn great tips to help care for your canine friends. And you’ll have the chance to see puppies just learning about the show ring, as a special event for 4- and 5-month-old puppies will be held every day. Are there dogs or dog lovers on your holiday shopping list? More than two dozen vendors will offer unique gifts and products you can’t find at big-box retailers, products you might not have known existed. From jewelry and art, to pet care and pet health, the Mid-Ohio Cluster offers a shopping extravaganza. Vendors’ booths are easy to find, right outside where the show rings are located. You don’t have to worry about anyone in your family going hungry when visiting the dog show. Schmidt’s Sausage Haus operates a food court inside the Bricker Building — and you can order more than just Schmidt’s German specialties. A wide variety of American and ethnic favorites are available. The Mid-Ohio Cluster begins on Thursday, November 13, with the Sandusky Kennel Club dog show. The Dayton Kennel Club puts on the show on Friday, November 14. On Saturday, November 15, Lima Kennel Club is hosting the show. The final show, on Sunday, November 16, belongs to the Central Ohio Kennel Club, which is Columbus’ American Kennel Club all-breed conformation club. Admission to the dog shows is free, but the Ohio State Fairgrounds/Expo Center will charge for parking.
