We are thrilled to announce a brand-new concurrent Specialty for the Spinone Club of America, hosted by the Southeast Spinone Club in partnership with the Hanover Kennel Club! Mark your calendars for an unforgettable day in beautiful Wilmington, NC, on Saturday, October 10, 2026.

Wilmington is not just a fantastic location for our Specialty—it’s also a charming port city located just 10 miles from the stunning Wrightsville Beach, 16 miles from Kure Beach, and 30 miles from the quaint, historic seaside town of Southport, NC. Plus, the vibrant heart of Wilmington is only 4 miles from the show site, offering a plethora of wonderful restaurants and cafes to explore while you’re here!

Join us in celebrating our beloved Spinoni in a friendly and competitive atmosphere, where you have the opportunity to add the prestigious BISS designation to your Spinoni's accomplishments! Additionally, our activities will continue with SCOA Supported Entries at the Hanover Kennel Club all-breed shows on Saturday, October 10, and Sunday, October 11, 2026. That’s 3 shows in two days, 2 on Saturday & 1 on Sunday!

A heartfelt thank you to the Spinone Club of America for granting us this fantastic opportunity to host the Specialty and Supported Entries. We can’t wait to welcome fellow Spinone lovers, friends, and newcomers to what promises to be a weekend filled with fun, camaraderie, and, of course, lots of wagging tails!

Stay tuned for more details, and start preparing your Spinoni for an unforgettable experience!
