388: What ISC Entry Data Tells Us

In this episode (28:03)

The AKC International Sweepstakes Class launched mid-2023, bringing European-style FCI course design to AKC trials at three levels of difficulty. Now, with two full years of data in hand, Sarah takes a deep dive into the numbers to see where the program stands and what the trends might tell us about where it's headed.

You Will Learn
  • How ISC entries compare to overall AKC participation, and what the 2024 vs. 2025 growth numbers actually look like
  • Why big dogs dominate ISC entries, and how the 20″ and 24″ height classes compare to their share of the broader AKC entry pool
  • What the shift away from Level 1 toward Levels 2 and 3 suggests about who is running ISC and how the competitor base is maturing
