Dog Shows are widely popular among dog breeders and lovers, and thousands of dogs compete in dog shows each year. These dog shows are events where dogs compete against other dogs based on breed standards published by the American Kennel Club. A judge or panel of judges familiar with specific dog breeds, such as terrier, shepherd, or hound, will evaluate the participating dogs for how well they conform to specific breed standards. A lot of hard work, grooming, time, and training goes into the preparation for a dog show. One important aspect to consider is the type of floor that the show will be on. Will there be a danger of slipping on plywood, pavement, grass, or concrete? If the floor will be carpeted, is it speciality carpet to ensure the safety of the dog and the trainer? You may be asking, what’s the best dog show ring matting?

There are certain criteria for trick and dog agility flooring, including portability and grip, among many other things.

Greatmats has options that exceed all minimum safety standards and criteria for the best dog show ring matting.
