Numero UNO!

Is this the most adorable beagle you've ever seen? You're looking at Uno, who won Best In Show at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show last night. The dogs are so adorable and the owners/handlers/trainers work so hard for this!

I remember my pal Jackie having alot of her dogs with papers. Her sister also trains dogs for dog shows and stuff too...or at least she did many moons ago! It just sounded so neat and like such a fun hobby. I'm sure it's hard, but for the people that do it, they look so happy and the dogs react so positively like they can tell when they win.

So my first pic here is of the winner, Uno:

Then we have this absolutely ridiculous picture of the Standard and Toy Poodles. Who owns these dogs? Why do they have little bubbles of fur on their bums? YUCK! They're not even functional! I love French culture, but I just don't get the purpose of these dogs. Maybe I'm just being too judgemental, but ewwww.

Whatever your fancy, don't be fooled by the cuteness of a dog show. Dogs have personalities, just like people, and it's important to fit the right dog to your lifestyle. Many dogs go up for adoption once owners realize it wasn't a good fit. But with enough research, you can make a good choice! Here is a link to the Westminseter Kennel Club website where you can read about nearly every breed of dog and if interested, find the right dog for you and your family!
