The four-judge show was officiated by Kelly Boles Chapman, Rob MeNeeley, Julie Thompson, and Daren Wright. The two-judge show was officiated by Lori Gordon and Sandy Jirkovsky. 

A holiday tradition year after year, the ShoMe Holiday ShoDown in Lansing, Michigan pulled out all the stops this year with an Exhibitor Pizza Party, Ugly Sweater Contest, cookie decorating, and more at their annual event.

The L1 Amateur Champion was Monica Parker Yeoman with Lil Lucky Decision. The Rookie Amateur was Dana Latimer with Fit N Frosty. The Amateur Champion was Danielle Mego with Dark Knight Seeker. The Rookie Youth winner was
