Reminder: Westminster Dog Show

[SizzleDog]

In case anyone else is watching... it's on USA (and I think CNBC) in about 30 minutes.

Hound, Terrier, Nonsporting, Herding are TONIGHT.
Sporting, Working, Toy - tomorrow!

I dont get any of the live channels ... I am sad.
But I did get news that my dogs brother won Best of Opposite Sex in their breed! Yay!!!!

 

[vanillasugar]

Thanks for the reminder!!

*watching now* Tee hee basset hound!

 

[SizzleDog]

Commercial break.... OK, is it just me... or was the 15" Beagle WAY overgroomed? Her tail looked ridiculous.

Here's her Breed photo... her tail doesn't look too bad in the photo, but on live TV... wow. Yuck.

I was supposed to be there. *crys*

 

[vanillasugar]

Sizzle, I completely agree on the tail on that beagle! It looked SO stupid on tv! LOL

I'm glad the Deerhound won group, but I'm sad that black and tan didn't place at all, he (?) was PRETTY! (Which perhaps, if he is in fact a she, may be why it didn't place...)

Edit... I mis worded that, I mean if it was a feminine male... I don't recall the actual sex of the dog.

 

[SizzleDog]

None of my favorites made the final cut... I loved the Harrier, the Elkhound, and the Plott.

 

[vanillasugar]

I really liked that Plott too, they're quickly rising as one of my favourite breeds.

 

[SizzleDog]

Terrier Group....

I really like this judge. And WTF is up with the handlers of the Cairn and the Airedale? Did they really think they wouldn't be excused?

 

[vanillasugar]

Ya I didn't get that, why dash the chances of others in the breed if you KNOW by showing the dog to Group it will be excused?

 

[SizzleDog]

I LOVE that Manchester... any nice Manchester with hair on their neck and chest gets a thumbs up from me!

The scottie is a cutie

 

[Izzy's Valkyrie]

Oh no, Charmin is back :rofl1: I didn't think he was all that pretty but I guess there is a breed for everyone.

 

[vanillasugar]

Oh no, Charmin is back :rofl1: I didn't think he was all that pretty but I guess there is a breed for everyone.

Aww I thought he was cute, but I don't know much about Sealyhams.

 

[Giny]

Why didn't we get the terrier group? All they showed was the hound. WWE Monday Night Wrestling came on instead...grr...that stinks.

The hound group was great and I agree with the beagle tail, I was about to post on it. Is part of it shaved, the bottom back part?

I was lucky enough to meet the Pharaoh Hound in person a few years ago. He was stunning!

Did the Staf. Bull Terrier look sad? Dunno, it just didn't look okay. . .

 

[SizzleDog]

My personal fav ein the terrier group is the Norwich. The Dandie is probably my 2nd fave.

Giny - switch to CNBC, the terrier and nonsporting are on CNBC. Dumb, I know.

 

[drmom777]

Why were the airdale and cairn excused? I tuned in around the Kerry Blue.

 

[vanillasugar]

Did the Staf. Bull Terrier look sad? Dunno, it just didn't look okay. . .

I was going to say something about that Staffy Bull too. It didn't look as... jovial as I expect from the breed.

Giny, I think for some places it changed to a different station after the hound group. Try looking around? It's got two groups left tonight.
