This morning, cute little Stump was on Good Morning America. His handler or owner or whoever it was with him said he had a bacterial infection but didn't elaborate on what type or what caused it or anything like that. Stump was a doll. Yes, I saw the scottie let fly! Granted, I don't watch a lot of shows, but I had never seen that....it WAS funny!!! She never missed a step
I LOVE WATCHING WESTMINSTER. OF COURSE I LOVE THE TOY BREEDS. :love:THE SMOOTH HAIR CHIHUAHUA PRANCED AROUND SO ADORABLY. :love:
Wellp... I was disappointed.. I knew who won (from the daily question on freekibble.com) but it just stung a little more once I watched it. Stump's not my type of dog.. and I really dont see what all the fuss was about.. but boy the crowd sure loved him.
About the Toller.. I honestly think Orangutango's Dance is better looking. (I'm a big fan of your crew btw...) I thought the coat on the Westminster one looked rough and I wasn't really awed by him.
We picked out some future furkids though.. I want a fawn boxer (She was beautiful!), a harlequin great dane, and a red doberman. Wow.. They were all beautiful.. and J wants a Bull mastiff or a dogue de bordeaux.. =) Of course.. whatever we run across in shelters is who we'll actually get.. but thats my wish list!
I actually picked the winner this time. That's a first for me. There was just something about that spaniel. :) Not a breed I am into, but I loved Stump. The non stop tail wagging I think it was did it for me.
I have become an admirer of the Norfolk Terrier, for sure. And, David I both really loved the Scottish Deerhound. What a beautiful, happy gait!
I was so happy Stump won! Gotta love it when the oldster wins, especially if he isn't the most glamorous of the bunch.
I didn't like the standard poodle either, not at all. I groom some better looking standard poodles than that one, I swear. The toy poodle, OTOH, was so adorable!
And I LOVED the rough collie, that dog is gorgeous.
It's been a long time since my breed, the smooth fox terrier, was in vouge at Westminster.
I agree!! She was absolutely precious!! She had that prance down to a fine art. I really wanted them to pick her.Quote:

This is one of the first years I didn't watch the entire show. I missed some of the Terrier Group, and some of the Toy Group. I thought Stump was cute. I heard he has two kids. I can only remember one of their names...Root. I thought that was funny. Root and Stump.
I loved them all....now that I have Boomer, I think the spaniels are precious....I loved the way the Springer in the show stacked ( I think that is what it is called) He was pretty.....Boomer wouldn't stand that still if a million milkbones came his way! I liked the boxer, too....and of course, the dal.
Wallace will stack in front of me with a loose lead, and then he immediately plops his butt on the ground. Standing still for that long is considered a waste of energy to my dogs :rolleyes:

The Cardi was my favorite too. So much personality. The Pembroke seemed so much more laid back. Loved the contrasting playfulness of the Cardi and I would have snatched him up in nanosecond.Quote:
I loved that Cardi, to death... and I was actually on a Telltail waiting list, at one point. She was robbed.
