Dog Quiz Bowl
The Wisconsin 4-H Dog Quiz Bowl is back for 2026!
The 2026 contest will be held on Saturday, April 25, 2025 at UW Green Bay in the STEM Innovation Building, 2019 Technology Way, Green Bay, WI 54311.
Competition in the 4-H Dog Bowl encourages youth to develop a more complete knowledge of dogs and related subjects. This contest provides an educational program for all dog project members, including those who may not own a dog, and provides a way to develop self-confidence, study skills, teamwork, inhibition, and alertness.
The Dog Bowl is a “quiz bowl” competition where all questions deal with dog-related topics and attitudes of friendliness and fairness prevail. Teams of three to four members compete with each other in giving oral answers to questions posed by a moderator. Teams receive points for correct answers and may lose points for incorrect answers. The team with the highest final score is the winner.
The contest is organized on a bracket elimination style contest with winning teams advancing into further rounds until a champion team emerges.
