Results are in from the 2007 Westminister Dog Show.
Good news...'Best in Show' went to a beautiful English Springer Spaniel. This is no pouffy little poodle..... 'Diamond Jim' also has a day job helping with therapy for alzheimers patients. This dog has very similar markings and colour to my dog. Now I'm ****ed at the wife... my Bronson 'coulda been a contender'..! http://www.westminsterkennelclub.org...bis/index.html |

There is no other sport that is more subjective than Dog Shows, and open to personal favorites and/or outright fraud. Not only is it extremely subject, but you have one judge who determines the winner. In other very subjective sports, such as Ice Skating and Gymnastics, you always have a large number of judges scoring the contestants. I doubt this will change, because that seems to be the way the dog owners prefer, or they would push for a change. I think your comment about "it was preordained", was a reference to the fact that the judge had owned and shown cocker spaniels as a youngster. |

But for a great family dog who loves to go boating, swimming, walking/running through the woods, and just herding up the neighborhood kids, nothing beats an: Australian Sheepdog http://www.nextdaypets.com/directory...479/10408.aspx a Border Collie http://darwin.nmsu.edu/~molbio/dog/images/02632.jpg or a Shetland Sheepdog. http://www.dog.com/breed/docgrafx/shetshee.jpg http://www.pasoddy.com/photo/shetland/shetland.jpg Smartest, most attentive dogs you can adopt. |
