Is that a Mop Hound? :)
Slim pickings then....I find the dog shows themselves somewhat interesting but the movie didn’t do it for me.
Devotees of public policy and sausage should not watch either one being made.
We used to watch the dog show with our Samoyed, Kodiak. He passed away a few years ago. We are very interested in getting a Shetland Sheepdog. Any owners, or breeders out there?
“They NEVER pick smooth red Dachshunds.... “
I have a Dachshund/Beagle pound pooch. She wins best of everything in my book.
“I could never get my Xoloitzcuintli to play sports either.”
Mine won’t even chase squirrels. Just sits there all day reading about that great Chinese Commust cat.., Mao.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels!
I liked tbe Heebeejeebie or BVGV or whatever. And the white long-haired Maltese (?)
I could never own one of those long-haired dogs. Unless I kept all its fur shaved off. I am not one to travel with my dog’s brush.
OK. The unpronounceable dog shows up. ;>
I picked the Peke, but the wire haired Dachshound & Dalmation were surprises for me
Proud to say my dog’s co-breeder won BoB for both Dog and Bitch once again this year. Belgian Sheepdog, coming up!
My daughter has a smooth doxie: it is a very attractive mouse-gray color.
The Germans call them `teckels’. http://www.teckelclub.org/
WWII General Manstein trained his teckel to give the Hilter salute. The general wasn’t a big fan of the `Little Corporal’ and it was always a big hit with Manstein’s dinner guests.
OK, I’m just nattering-on now. I’m a bulldog guy.
Hilter=Hilton (Paris)
Congrats!
Rintense, are you talking about WD and WB ( Winners Dog and Winners Bitch )?????
Because the last that I remember when I was showing, and that’s been about 8 years ago, there is only ONE dog ( or bitch ) that is awarded BOB or BEST OF BREED at any show.
umm that should be SIX ( 6 ) years ago. DOH ~!
Could mean BOB and BOS (Best of Breed and Best of Opposite Sex). But there is always only 1 BOB.
