Where Tradition meets Presentation

Elite Show Dogs, LLC was founded by Randy and Cynthia Lubinsky, longtime participants in elite international dog competition and co-creators of the Elite Runway Experience.

For decades, the Lubinskys have sponsored, campaigned, and exhibited champion show dogs across multiple breeds, working alongside respected professional handlers at prestigious national and international events.

Their Border Terrier, Whiskey, was presented at major international competitions, including the World Dog Show in Helsinki, where he was awarded Best of Breed. Whiskey also earned Best of Breed at Westminster and became the first Border Terrier to achieve the distinction of Grand Champion Double Platinum — a milestone reflecting sustained excellence at the highest levels of competition.

The Lubinskys have also campaigned champion Bullmastiffs, maintaining long-term involvement across breeds and show circuits.

Cynthia’s professional background bridges the worlds of elite competition and fashion. She managed an exclusive women’s boutique in Winter Park, Florida, overseeing curated luxury collections and representing established fashion brands.

As part of that role, she traveled regularly to New York, Dallas, Las Vegas, Atlanta, and other major merchandising markets to source collections, evaluate trends, and engage directly with designers and brand representatives.

Her experience in fashion retail — understanding presentation, silhouette, styling, and brand positioning — informs the aesthetic vision behind the Elite Runway Experience.

Randy brings decades of experience building and scaling platforms across industries, combining strategic leadership with disciplined execution.

Together, they recognized an opportunity to elevate the tradition of elite dog competition through a refined, fashion-forward presentation format grounded in authentic participation.

Elite Show Dogs, LLC serves as the parent platform behind the Elite Runway Experience, ensuring that the concept is rooted in lived experience — not abstraction.

The Elite Runway Experience reflects two lifelong disciplines — elite competition and luxury presentation — brought together on a global stage.
