Tuesday Update on Westminister K.C. Dog Show - Follow Down Through Blogs for More Info

CAN A PULI WIN BEST IN SHOW AT WESTMINISTER TONIGHT?

Tonight - Day 2 of the Westminister Kennel Club Dog Show - begins at 8:00 p.m. (Eastern) and 7:00 p.m. Central on USA Channel and will continue on the same channel for three hours.

Tonight's Groups will be Sporting (Cocker Spaniels, Irish Setter, Labradors), Working (Boxer, Doberman, Saint Bernard) and Toys (Pomeranian, Shih Tzu, Chuhauhua) followed by Best In Show.

Last night's winners were:

Hound Group - Scottish Deerhound - Gayleward's Tiger Woods

Terrier Group - Scottish Terrier - Roundbon Mercedes of Marepot (Amstamm Kennels bred)

Non-Sporting - Standard Poodle (Black) Randenn Tristar Affirmation

Herding Group - Puli - Cordmaker Filed Of Dreams

As mentioned before, these dogs are at a disadvantage in that they have been relaxing since their wins. Tonight's group winning dogs will come off their wins, still in top form ready to go back into the ring. For them, the show never stopped.

I did have a favorite last night, but this dog has to be in the same form, of course and we have not yet seen tonight's winners. I liked the Puli. The Puli just seemed to have that little extra and more personality than one generally sees from that breed. Incidentally, the 4-year-old Puli, named Cordmaker Field of Dreams, is from Raleigh, NC, where I just happen to have friends working at TV Station Carolina 14. A Puli has never won Best in Show at Westminister!

Hope you enjoy tonight's Westminister and of course, the Best In Show competition is generally the most interesting! Remember - once they make it to Best In Show - we are looking at the Best of the Best!
