"Oh, he's happy-go-lucky, he's funny, he jumps, he does hucklebucks," she said, describing an athletic leap the breed is known for, in which they jump into the air and slam their heads against the wall.
Now that sounds pretty funny. Wonder what her walls look like.

and a Scottish deerhound, a breed competing at Westminster for the first time. It may have been the first time a Deerhound made it to BIS, but the breed has been showing at Westiminster for a long, long time.

The Bull Terrier showed really well. Too bad the pug picked this day to decide he didn't like the BIS judge, oops!
I'm one of those that thinks this breed is ugly but I have to admit one of the neatest dogs I've ever known was a Bull Terrier. He was owned by a farrier and taught himself to be a farriers helper. Cool dog.

I like that dog. He was also at the Eukanuba "National Champ" show a few weeks ago, as were many of these finalists.
I also liked the Scot Deerhound (she did trot beautifully - that's how GS should trot!), and the Pug (but think his skittishness w/the judge may have sunk him), and the Rottie was pretty nice.
I'm glad the Golden didn't win, although he was quite pretty. For a Golden. ;-)

What a fabulous group that best in show was. Any dog would have been deserving.
Wonderful to watch. I don't know how the judge made a decision. It would have been very difficult.

Well,
I too think the dog is gorgeous.
Not everything is about pretty,
sometimes character counts ;)

Did you say "colored"?
We don't say "colored" any more.
It's a "Doggy-American"......

Geesh! This writer can't even capitalize Golden Retriever! It's the name of a specific breed, for cryin' out loud, not a COLOR! Max says, "We just don't get no respect, no more!"
