The selection focuses on relationship-building opportunities rather than clinical education, making it useful for professionals who prioritize peer connections, supplier introductions, and industry visibility. The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in February draws a concentrated audience of breeders, handlers, and breed enthusiasts, while MWI Animal Health Connect in Las Vegas in late March puts distributors and practice owners in the same room for structured networking. For operators building referral pipelines or scoping new vendor relationships, the geographic spread here matters.
