Last night was the closing of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog show.Being a dog lover, I do watch it every year.
I just love looking at those gorgeous and expensive pure breds. (breeds, whatever)
During night one I saw and heard about the really amazing Beagle that had a "shot at the title" but when two poodles made it into the final I thought I'd be hurling something hard at the TV by the nights end.
No such luck.
But before I get to that, let me tell you about some other things that I saw during the 2-day event.
Those dogs stay in a hotel I probably couldn't afford for more than one night.
The lady who judged the working group looked like she was either going to fall over, drop dead or go to sleep at any point during their judging. Then they said she was going to retire after this event. No shit. She could barely walk. But she had enough spunk to boss the handlers around.
I still giggle any time any of the judges say the word bitch.
Can't they just say female?
It just doesn't seem fair. And it's not like they can call the males bastards because they have papers.
Three of the four new breeds who came to the show this year were hideous looking.
The one exception; the Tabetin Mastiff. (pictured above)
What a great looking dog!
I added him to the list of dogs I love; Burnese Mountain Dog, Great Pyrenees, English Setter, Labs, Retrievers and the Pomeranian. (the only little yip-yip ankle biter I'd ever own)
Poor James, the Best in Show from last year, did a Paw-tograph signing at the NBC store.
Seriously, that poor freakin dog. Does he really need to do crap like that? Takes time away from him being at hospitals with people who deserve that love that only a dog can give.
Look at his face...even he seems to be saying "are you freakin kidding me? you're SO lucky I'm such a sweet pooch"
At least they gave him some Ben & Jerry's.
He's such a beautiful boy.
Okay, last night's winner...wow. Uno the 15" standard beagle won it.
He reminded me of Josh the Newfie when he was being judged in the final.
Barking and acting up and basically saying "Give me the ribbon already and bring on the bitches!"
But to anyone who thinks these dogs don't work for it...check out this picture of Uno doing his time on the treadmill!Congratulations sweet boy, you made Snoopy proud!
