Presented By Royal Canin and the Canadian Pet Expo

Meet The Breeds at the

CPE BREEDER'S VILLAGE!

Looking to add a puppy to your family? Want to learn more about different breeds of dogs? Simply love dogs? Talk to the experts at the Spring Canadian Pet Expo in our “Meet the Breeds” booths! Breed clubs will introduce their dogs to you; let you know about their history, personalities and how to care best for them. They’ll also have great examples of their breed that you can interact with! We will have live presentations and our experts will answer any questions you have!

Whether your looking to add a family pet companion from a forever re-homing group or looking to speak directly with a breeder or club on the addition process, the Canadian Pet Expo Breeder's Village is your families starting point. The main stage in Hall 4 will be hosted by Ian Lynch as he presents the "Parade of Breeds" on all three days
