You first start by showing the dogs and bitches that are not champions yet.

The dogs (males) will compete first in one of these classes: puppy 6-under 9 months, puppy 9-under 12 months, 12-18 months, american bred, bred by exhibitor, or open. A 1st place ribbon will be given to a dog in each class and then those dogs will compete for winners dog (best of all the dogs entered).

Then the bitches (females) will compete just like the dogs did above...in one of those classes. The 1st place winning bitch of each class will compete for winners bitch.

Then you go on to Best Of Breed competition. The dogs that compete in BOB are winners dog, winners bitch, and all of the specials (bitches and dogs that are already champions). Best of Breed will be chosen here. Also chosen is Best of Opposite sex (so if a male wins BOB then a female will get BOS). And then a Best of Winners is chosen out of the winners dog and winners bitch.

So then the dog that won Best of Breed will go on to compete in the Toy group competition. A group 1, 2, 3, and 4 place are given in the group ring.

Then the winner of the toy group will go on to compete against the other 6 group winners to compete for Best in Show.
