I think it's just on ABC?
I watched the breed judging and I think the winner might be Susie again. Oh well, maybe some day there will be an awsome dog with CORRECT ears :rolleyes:

Her ears are flying ears, which should be a fault. They should rest flat against the head like this (http://www.pedigree.co.nz/breeds/images/dalmatian.jpg) Not this (http://longfellow.zoto.com/img/original/20a176be8ed91728b8d56a6342cedab7.jpg)
Head is only worth 10 points out of 100 but I feal it takes away a lot towards general appearence. I guess when the dog is otherwise that amazing it's more of a pet peave. Especially when you could have just massaged and/or taped them :rolleyes:
Never mind it's Mach Ten

I missed the airing, but I saw the breed judging and I could point out Jeffrey from a mile away :D Watching him again made me fully appreciate the excellent movement and coat on Yakee dogs. I'm not at all surprised he won BOB but I am dissapointed he only went G2. *sighs* What can you do?

I watched last night's, but not tonight's. The Neapolitan Mastiff, Boxer and Malamute were beautiful. I just watched the Working Group, I didn't have time to watch the rest :( But the part I watched was awesome.

Oh, did he? I watched half of the Terrier group and saw him, he's really beautiful. I enjoyed watching his striking, beautiful moves! :D

Why do you think the pug was scared? Shouldn't he be used to all the touching and poking? At first I thought he was stretching, but then he pulled back again. Everyone in the audience was like, "eeewwwwww". I felt bad for the little guy. I was hoping he would win. He was so cute.

LOL. No, that would be funny if he did though.

He just lowered the whole front of his body and scooted up his butt. He did it twice. It looked like he was stretching, but he just didn't want to be touched by the judge.

Dermot? I heard a judge accidentally poked him in the eye or something a few weeks ago and since then he's been scared of the judges :(
what is this, like BIS #31 for RUFUS?? I think he desirves it, he's so awsome!
