The Xoloitzcuintli Club of America, Inc. is happy to provide awards consisting of XCA Logo Lapel Pins for the Xoloitzcuintli entry at certain designated all-breed shows during the year.

These are offered for Best of Breed, Best of Opposite Sex, Best of Winners, Select Dog and Select Bitch.

The Xoloitzcuintli Club of America also supports the entries for shows held in conjunction with the National. Anyone who would like to offer trophies for these types of entries instead should contact the National Specialty Chairman for that year so the trophies & donors can be listed in the cluster premium list and cluster catalog.

With any of the shows listed below, if contacted early enough, some clubs will allow donors to pay for an upgrade from flat ribbons to rosettes (for the top five or more if the donor decides). The trophy chair should be contacted for each club listed below (this can sometimes be found in a copy of the previous year’s premium list).
