“We are killing ourselves to make sure you guys have the biggest and baddest EXPERIENCE at a BULLDOG Show Ever! Join us and live to BRAG about it.”
- TEAM BEAST 2025
We’re bringing back a legendary event that bull breed lovers from across the country and the world travel to experience. The original Beast of the East, began over 20 years ago, faded away, and came roaring back in 2023. Now it’s a bi-annual tradition. This isn’t your typical dog show — it’s for the BIG DOG and BULLDOG crowd. Breeders, pet owners, and everyone in between. No papers required. No limits. Just passion, pride, and presence. Everyone’s coming to see “THE BEAST.” A multi-category fun show built for the MONSTERS that usually stay home — too big, too bold, or too unique for a standard ring. This is their day. A day where “TOO MUCH” doesn’t exist. It’s about FUN, bragging rights, and LOVE for the dogs. The ones tucked away on couches and in kennels, finally stepping into the spotlight. YOUR BRAND?? It can be on every BEAST trophy, ribbon, and award — and your business name will line the entire fun show ring. DON’T WAIT TO MAKE YOUR MARK ON SOMETHING UNFORGETTABLE.

First Come, First Serve!
The Beast of the East is a long standing tradtion for bull breeds, specifically the American Bulldog. We brought this event back in November 2023 and it was a blast. We hope to see everyone and more this year.
We had many photographers and videographers out to document such a historical bulldog community event. Especially for our own breed, the Olde English Bulldogge.
KING OF THE RING
We will have 4 ABKC-sanctioned dog shows this year. If you would like to enter these conformation dog shows we are here to help. Please reach out. KING OF THE RING will be chosen by all 4 judges at the end of the shows. All Best In Show Winners will compete for this!
THE BEAST
