Questions, answered

If you don't find what you need below, drop us a note.

Is ShowDogCentral affiliated with the AKC?
No. ShowDogCentral is an independent tool built by dog show exhibitors. We aggregate publicly available AKC event data and add features AKC.org does not offer — community judge ratings, bookmark tracking, point schedules, and custom saved searches. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the American Kennel Club.
How often is event, judge, and club data updated?
Data is refreshed daily from AKC's public event system. New event listings typically appear in ShowDogCentral within 24 hours of AKC posting them, and judge changes propagate on the same cadence.
How does the 30-day free trial work?
Sign up with just your name and email — no credit card required. You get 30 days of full access to every feature. If you want to continue, upgrade to $10/month or $100/year. If not, your account simply expires with nothing billed.
Which event types does ShowDogCentral cover?
All AKC event types — conformation, obedience, rally, agility, fast CAT, hunting tests, and more. You can filter by event type across every search.
Can I see a judge's past show history and community ratings?
Yes. Every judge profile shows past and upcoming assignments (filterable by breed), community ratings, your personal rating and notes, and a record of shows you have been shown under that judge.
What's the difference between the monthly and yearly plans?
Both plans include every feature. Monthly is $10 per month billed monthly. Yearly is $100 per year (about $8.33/month), saving $20 compared to 12 monthly payments.
Can I cancel my subscription anytime?
Yes. Cancel from your account settings — no phone calls, no contracts. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You can also cancel during the 30-day free trial with no charge.
Do you have a mobile app?
ShowDogCentral is a responsive web app that works on iPhone, iPad, Android, and desktop. No app store download required — open your mobile browser and sign in. Add ShowDogCentral to your home screen for one-tap access.
