More Dogs




I had such fun at the dog show on Monday, I went back for more.
As far as yesterday's unscientific poll went, the winners were the rough-haired dachshund and the Scottish deer  hound. Mostly because of their lovely soulful eyes.
 

I like taking pictures of the dogs with their owners.
There are some pictures just of dogs I like --though I like mutts best of all.
This is the bliss of blogging. No editors to insist on stuff.....



This character managed to relax amidst all the hubbub.



Lots of people like toy dogs and there were oodles of dog accessories for sale.



The wirehaired German pointer is a very fancy breed but manages to look like a mutt.


Wow!


Some dogs and owners were getting hot and tired.
 


Some were getting a little anxious...


or even bored.


This is the one who wants to be a mutt.




And one who certainly isn't.

And finally, my personal best in show, Colin, the Welsh Springer Spaniel.

Westminster Dog Show




Dog #1.
This is a long post with lots of pictures.
Yesterday I went to the Dog Show.
I did not look at the judging since everyone knows that their own dog is positively the best and most beautiful dog on the planet.
However, just for fun, please vote below on the one of these who charmed you most.


Dog #2
Odd how people, even the girl above, seem to pick dogs who echo them.


Dog #3
Certainly something to look at. What are those balls on his hips?


Dog #4
A Brittany but the same color as the Welsh Springer Spaniels I grew up with. (Sob).



Dog #5
I asked the owner if this dog needed lots and lots of excercise and she said that actually, after a normal sort of walk, he liked lying around sleeping.



Dog #6
.... looks as if he is smiling and very noble too.



Dog #7
....was 6 years old and looks like a puppy. A Norfolk terrier.
 

Dog #8
....was enjoying ice cream. About a zillion people reminded her not to let the dog eat the chocolate. I think the owner gets points for her coat.



Dog #9
This young owner was waiting to show his dog.

I bought my son a Dogs Rule T-shirt and was given lots of free samples for Joba.
