Made by exhibitors

ShowPoints is the dog show app built by people who show: shows near you, your dogs' ring times, the judges and your points, in one place.

Built from the ringside.

ShowPoints was created by Matthew G. Stroud, an owner-handler and lifelong communications professional who wanted to make showing dogs simpler for everyone.

He has loved the sport since he was a junior handler, and came back to it later in life as an owner-handler. After years of juggling entry sites, judging programs and closing dates while showing multiple Schipperkes, he saw the need for one streamlined place to stay organized.

Why it exists

If you have ever spent a Thursday night jumping between websites to plan a show weekend, you know where ShowPoints came from.

Showing dogs means early mornings, long drives, grooming, nerves and a community that makes it all worth it. What never made sense to Matthew was how hard it was to stay organized: checking judging programs, finding premium lists and tracking points took more time than it should.

ShowPoints began as a simple idea: make the weekend easier to manage, and encourage more people to get out there and show. It is built around what he needed when he came back to the sport, and what other exhibitors have told him they need too.

“Everything we build comes from real exhibitor experiences.”Matthew G. Stroud, founder

“Finally, something built by people who actually show dogs. I used to have eight tabs open just to find info. Now I just open ShowPoints.”

Independent, and clear about it

ShowPoints is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the American Kennel Club, any superintendent, kennel club or event-giving organization. Show details come from the published premium lists and judging programs, and ShowPoints adds up the results you enter. AKC's records are the official ones.

ShowPoints doesn't enter shows for you. You still enter through the superintendent or the club, as you do today.
