westminster part 2 - and the winner is...

'Carlee' a German Shorthaired Pointer. Im glad that one of dogs in my list of favorites won. There's been a dearth of Best in Show winner in the breeds that I like. You'ld have to go back to 1986 when another Pointer won. Before that the only winners of 'my type' have been a German Shorthaired Pointer in '74, a Whippet in '64, a Bulldog in '55, Pointers in '32 and '25, a Bull Terrier in '18 and finally another Bulldog in 1913. (I know, I'ld be a terrible judge always picking a Bulldog.) Strangely a Retriever has never won. Terriers, Poodles and Spaniels seem to be the most popular. Oh well...

(Edit: Added the Bull Terrier in 1918)
