The 129th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show is now airing on the USA Network. There are 3 new breeds in the show this year: The Glen of Imaal Terrier, The Black Russian Terrier, and (the breed made popular Harry Potter) The Neopolitan Mastiff.
The best in breed and best in group for the working, terrier, toy, and non-sporting groups happened yesterday. The best in breed and best in group for sporting, hound and herding groups is happening right now. And tonight? Best in Show!
So anyways my fav dogs? Well if you know me at all, obviously the Bulldog (and French Bulldog). I also like the Boston Terrier and the Shiba Inu in the non-sportings. The Bull (and Mini Bull) Terrier in the Terrier group. The Italian Greyhound in the toys. In the working group I really like the Great Dane, probably because of Scooby Doo.
It gets complicated when we get to the Sporting and Hound group because I love them all!
In the Sporting group I LOVE Pointers and Retrievers. But if I had to pick one, I would have to go with the Chesapeake Bay Retriever (sorry chocolate labs! oh and note that I think thats the first somewhat longer haired dog I've mentioned.) Also in that group I LOVE the Vizla and Weimaraner.
In the Hounds its even worse because I just can't pick one. I love the greyhound and whippet look (I mention the Italian earlier). And the Basset Hound and Bloodhound are just to cute and droopy. The "Hot Dog" Dachshund and Beagle are classics. Finally, there is just something enticing about the ridge on a Rhodesian Ridgeback.
