Administrators Gail Posted February 13, 2014 Administrators Posted February 13, 2014 A little terrier won, named Sky... I plan to watch some of the judging later. I briefly watched the Vizslas and Weimaraners. Beautiful specimens, all of them! Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted February 13, 2014 Members Posted February 13, 2014 to tell the truth, I didn't care for the coat clipping of the Wire Haired Terrier...it looked rather goofy (I know that's what is considered "standard" for that breed, though). But I think I'd have had a tough time trying to figure which should have the Best in Show! Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?

Members phkrause Posted February 5 Members Posted February 5 Westminster Winner Crowned Penny the Doberman Pinscher was crowned best in show yesterday at the 2026 Westminster Kennel Club dog competition—the second-longest continuously held sporting event in the US (behind the Kentucky Derby) and now in its 150th year. More than 3,000 pooches competed at Madison Square Garden for best of breed before advancing to group judging. Seven finalists ultimately vied for best in show: Penny the Doberman Pinscher (working group); Zaida the Afghan Hound (hound group); Cota the Chesapeake Bay Retriever (sporting group), who won the runner-up prize; Wager the Smooth Fox Terrier (terrier group); Cookie the Maltese (toy group); JJ the Lhasa Apso (nonsporting group); and Graham the Old English Sheepdog (herding group). See photos of the finalists here and what it takes to become a winner here. The prestigious competition began in 1877, when a group of dog enthusiasts who met at Manhattan’s Westminster Hotel organized a showcase for hunting dogs.
