As you probably know, the granddaddy of all dog shows, the Westminster Kennel Club Show, is generally held in the middle of the winter in the place everyone wants to be when it’s cold, New York City. However, with ongoing COVID-19 restrictions, the decision was made to make this year’s show an outdoor event, and the big show was moved to June in hopes of finding some good weather. It’s been hot hot hot in New York this week, but temperatures are supposed to moderate in time for this weekend’s event. Continue reading Coming Soon: Westminster 2021
Wrapping up coverage of this year’s granddaddy of all dog shows, the Best in Show winner for Westminster 2018 is…(drum roll please!)… Continue reading Westminster 2018: Best in Show Winner
To review: the competitors for Best in Show tonight are:
Hound Group: Borzoi “Lucy”
Toy Group: Pug “Biggie”
Non-Sporting Group: Bichon Frise “Flynn”
Herding Group: Border Collie “Slick”
Sporting Group: Sussex Spaniel “Bean”
Working Group: Giant Schnauzer “Ty”
Terrier Group:. Norfolk “Winston”
My pick? I’m torn between the sentimental favorite, the Pug Biggie, who is being shown in place of his uncle who died last summer, and the posing Sussex Spaniel Bean, who stands up on his hind feet for a sliver of liver every time he gets a chance.
But if I were a gambler, I’d bet on the Borzoi.
Taking the ribbons in the Sporting Group:
Winner: Sussex Spaniel “Bean” (who posed up on his hind legs for a treat during his tour of the ring – so cute!)
2nd Place: Cocker Spaniel, ASCOB “Striker”
3rd Place: Clumber Spaniel “Angus”
4th Place: Wirehaired Pointing Griffon “Kit”
