The World Dog Show is the highlight of dog shows every year. This exhibition is the world's largest dog show, where the World's Most Beautiful Dog is selected on the last day. In 2014, the Finnish Kennel Club had the honor of hosting the world's largest dog event, the World Exhibition.

Back then, more than 16,500 dog entries were registered for the global event, exhibitors came with their dogs from 45 different countries, and the show was honored by about 60,000 visitors. After 16 years, the Kennel Club received the opportunity again to organize the World Dog Show.

Welcome to Helsinki! World Dog Show 2014 Trailer 2.:
The city of the World Dog Show is Helsinki. Helsinki is the capital of Finland, located on the Baltic Sea and has a population of over half a million. The city was founded in 1550 and became the capital of Finland in 1812. Helsinki is a city of modern European culture, a pocket-sized metropolis that is easy to explore on foot. Helsinki maintains excellent connections with Finland's and the world's major cities. Helsinki Vantaa Airport has ranked among the best European airports over the past decade, known as Europe's gateway to Asia. Most tourist attractions are accessible within a short walk from the city center, and when one gets tired, public transport is available.
Helsinki is one of the safest European cities, thanks to functional urban planning, friendly and clean residents and visitors. Food hygiene and drinking water supply are of the highest standards. Both Helsinki and its residents have a special character and charm that is easy to recognize. People are open and straightforward. Studies have shown that visitors truly appreciate Helsinki's uniquely multilingual population.
