Westminster says it celebrates all dogs. The show champions that compete also are household pets, and some do therapy work, search-and-rescue or other canine jobs.
We were there last night- great show...that was the one dog i did NOT want to win...
Really wanted the Bichon Frise or the dog from the terrier group.
PETA hates dogs, so getting that person out of there probably saved him/ her from getting clocked.
That Giant Schnauzer is a gorgeous dog.
From Wiki:
A Schnauzer plural Schnauzer, (German: lit. ‘snouter’), is a dog breed type that originated in Germany from the 14th to 16th centuries. The term comes from the German word for “snout” and means colloquially “moustache”, or “whiskered snout”, because of the dog’s distinctively bearded snout. Initially it was called Wire-Haired Pinscher, while Schnauzer was adopted in 1879.
I might be biased but any dog that isn't big enough to rip the throat out of a home invader shouldn't be allowed to compete.....
My wife and I have 2 miniature schnauzers. Our daughter and her husband have 2 giant schnauzers. They are all beautiful, but we have our hands full when our daughter and SIL are traveling and we have 4 dogs in the house.
I refuse to watch unless and until a wiener dog wins.
Here’s a compilation of clips of the different breeds from the show, yesterday:

Long as it wasn’t another poodle or wire fox terrier.
Still waiting for a Komondor to win.
Are that dog’s ears mutilated? They look strange.
