The Royal Kennel Club - Crufts 2027 Show Interviews and Highlights

The search has begun for the UK's most inspiring canine as Crufts opens nominations for the 2027 Hero Dog Awards. 

Every dog can be a hero, and we know that can mean something different to everyone.

The Crufts Hero Dog Awards celebrate dogs who have made a truly special difference to the lives of others. They might be a working or assistance dog, have shown incredible bravery, or simply be a much-loved companion who has changed someone’s life for the better. Whatever their story, we want to hear about the dogs who deserve their moment in the spotlight.

This year, five Hero Dogs will be chosen and their stories shared in the lead-up to Crufts. The public will then have the chance to vote for their People’s Champion, who will be announced in the main arena at Crufts 2027.

Each of our five Hero Dogs will also receive a donation from the Royal Kennel Club, (in partnership with Royal Canin) for their nominated charity, helping to make a positive difference.
