National Owner Handled Series (NOHS)

The National Owner-Handled Series (NOHS) is a program designed by the American Kennel Club (AKC) to recognize and celebrate the achievements of owner-handlers in the dog show ring. Introduced to cater to the unique group of enthusiasts who both own and handle their dogs, the NOHS offers a distinct competitive platform separate from professional handlers. This series allows for a more level playing field, where owner-handlers can showcase their dogs and handling skills among peers with similar levels of experience and resources. Events in the NOHS include various breed and group competitions, culminating in rankings and special events at the end of the show year.
