She said there were about 550 dogs taking part in the show with national and international judges critiquing them.
While there were a few local contestants, Ms McVicker said the general public couldn't just turn up with their family pet on a leash and take part - it was for purebred dogs only.
"It's very competitive - everyone wants to be the best labrador or the best German Shepherd.
Ms McVicker said some of the more unusual dogs on display over the weekend included the Portuguese water dogs and the standard schnauzer.
As well as the competitive aspect, Ms McVicker said a key focus of the show was educating the general public on dog ownership.
She said many people came along to ask the breeders questions to try and find the best kind of dog to suit their situation.
Between 500 and 600 people headed along to watch during the shows.
