If you have ever spent a Thursday night jumping between websites to plan your weekend, you already understand the frustration that led to ShowPoints.
I have loved this sport since I was a junior handler. I know the pride of stepping into the ring with a dog you believe in, and I know how much work goes into getting there. The early mornings, the long drives, the grooming, the nerves, and the community all mean something special. Showing dogs is one of the most rewarding parts of my life.
What never made sense was how difficult it was to stay organized. Checking judging programs, finding premium lists, tracking points, and planning ahead required more time than it should.
ShowPoints began as a simple idea. I wanted to make it easier for exhibitors to manage their weekends. I also wanted to encourage people to show. To get out there. To experience the connection that happens in the ring and the sense of accomplishment that follows.
Everything we build comes from real exhibitor experiences. The app reflects what I needed when I returned to the sport, and it reflects what others have told me they need too.
ShowPoints is still growing, and I am grateful for everyone who has tried the app, shared ideas, or supported this project. My goal is to make this sport easier to navigate so more people can enjoy being part of it.
If you are discovering ShowPoints for the first time, welcome. I am glad you are here.
