Did Anybody Watch the Eukanuba Dog Show this Weekend?

I did, I did! I watched it both nights with my mom. I think we said something about each one - oh, what a cute dog! or look at that coat, or I guess big dogs need big homes! I always learn something when I watch dog shows. For example: I didn't know that the Portuguese Water Dog has webbed feet. Or that there are three different sizes of poodles. All the dogs are so different from each other! If I were the judge I would have a really hard time choosing, plus I think I would want to pet them all and play with them. (When you go to a dog show, you're probably not allowed to touch the dogs, huh?) The commentators explained some very basic things about dogs and dog shows, too. There was a boy handling a dog in one of the groups who was 15 years old, the commentator said that it's a lot of pressure for a young handler and he was doing a great job. I liked the crowd's reactions to all the different dogs. I hope I'll be able to have a dog at some point in my life. First I have to move to a place with a safe area for a dog and get a more predictable schedule, though.

I get into it. I have to watch every breed and every dog. I like Dylan, Aka roadside attraction, who took award of excellence in papillons. Gorgeous markings. And the rough collie pup that took opposite sex, cute as can be. She looks so young, I didn't catch the age. The german shepherds were hideous.
