NYC's Westminister Kennel Club show each February is the grand-dam of dog shows. There's a lot at stake, and contestants have travelled a long road to get there ... so their owners, or handlers, can be a little testy if things aren't going their way. I've attended Westminister, not as a participant, several times ... it's worth doing at least once just to get the flavor. Now I watch it on TV ... which brings up a question ... when does the terrier group show?

Last night. The Kerry Blue "Mick" won.

Terrier group showed last night. Mick (the kerry blue) won as expected. I hope there is at least one upset tonight. Other than the newfoundland, I think every group winner was highly favored.

"...when does the terrier group show?"
Answer: Yesterday. It was won by Mick, a famous (in the dog show world) Kerry Blue who is the favorite to win Best in Show. He won the big English show, Crufts, and he won the AKC Invitational last month. Considered one of the greatest show dogs ever. A beautiful fellow, indeed, although I did really like the Smooth Fox Terrier who finished 3rd in the group last night.
