Let's Meet the American Cocker!
The Hiawatha Cocker Spaniel Club is joining the Crow River this year.

The merry and frolicsome Cocker Spaniel, with his big, dreamy eyes and impish personality, is one of the world's best-loved breeds. They were developed as hunting dogs, but Cockers gained their wide popularity as all-around companions. Those big, dark eyes; that sweet expression; those long, lush ears that practically demand to be touched. It is no wonder the Cocker spent years as America's most popular breed. The coat comes in enough colors and patterns to please any taste. The well-balanced body is sturdy and solid, and these quick, durable gundogs move with a smooth, easy gait. Cockers are eager playmates for kids and are easily trained as companions and athletes. They are big enough to be sporty, but compact enough to be portable. A Cocker in full coat rewards extra grooming time by being the prettiest dog on the block. These energetic sporting dogs love playtime and brisk walks.

Ever wonder how a dog becomes "Best in Show"?

Mark your calendars for a local show in Hutchinson MN and come find out!
October 1- 4, 2026

At the Crow River Fall Classic and all other shows through AKC they are what you can think about as a single-elimination tournament, where dogs compete head-to-head and winners advance through each round until one dog is crowned Best in Show.

It's fast-paced, educational, and a great way to learn about all of the great purebred breeds, meet the breeds and handlers themselves. You may learn about a breed you hadn't considered for your next pet or best friend with paws!

Join us and cheer on your favorites as they advance through the bracket toward the ultimate prize!

Let's meet the English Springer Spaniel..

The English Springer Spaniel is a medium-sized sporting dog, with a compact body and a docked or undocked tail, both are given equal consideration. His coat is moderately long, with feathering on his legs, ears, chest and brisket. His pendulous ears, soft gentle expression, sturdy build and friendly wagging tail proclaim him unmistakably a member of the ancient family of Spaniels. He is above all a well-proportioned dog, free from exaggeration, nicely balanced in every part. His carriage is proud and upstanding, body deep, legs strong and muscular, with enough length to carry him with ease. Taken as a whole, the English Springer Spaniel suggests power, endurance and agility. He looks the part of a dog that can go, and keep going, under difficult hunting conditions. At his best, he is endowed with style, symmetry, balance and enthusiasm, and is every inch a sporting dog of distinct spaniel character, combining beauty and utility.

The Twin Cities Poodle Club will be joining us again with their concurrent specialties!

Let's meet the poodle!

Whether Standard, Miniature, or Toy, and either black, white, or apricot, the Poodle stands proudly among dogdom's true aristocrats. Beneath the curly, hypoallergenic coat is an elegant athlete and companion for all reasons and seasons.

Poodles come in three size varieties: Standards should be more than 15 inches tall at the shoulder; Miniatures are 15 inches or under; Toys stand no more than 10 inches. All three varieties have the same build and proportions. At dog shows, Poodles are usually seen in the elaborate Continental clip. Most pet owners prefer the simpler Sporting clip, in which the coat is shorn to follow the outline of the squarely built, smoothly muscled body. Forget any preconceived notions about Poodles you may have: Poodles are eager, athletic, and wickedly smart dogs of remarkable versatility. The Standard, with his greater size and strength, is the best all-around athlete of the family, but all Poodles can be trained with great success.

The Newfoundland Club of America is offering Concurrent Specialties with our show again this year.

Let's meet the Newfoundland

The massive Newfoundland is a strikingly large, powerful working dog of heavy bone and dignified bearing. The sweet-tempered Newfie is a famously good companion and has earned a reputation as a patient and watchful 'nanny dog'� for kids.

A male Newfoundland can weigh up to 150 pound. The Newf head is majestic, the expression soft and soulful. The outer coat is flat and coarse. Colors are gray, brown, black, and a black-and-white coat. The Newfie breed standard says that a sweet temperament is the "most important single characteristic of the breed." The Newf's sterling character is expressed in their affinity for kids. Trusting and trainable, Newfs respond well to gentle guidance.
