Gone to the dogs...

I cannot believe that it's already 2 in the afternoon Central Time and NO ONE in this forum has pointed out that a Scottie won the Best In Show at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show!

I read, on line last week, that the Scottie was going to win. As an avid watcher of the Westminster Dog Show I was disappointed that the Scottie won but then again I was disappointed in some of the dogs that won their best of. I thought this years best of was anticlimatic.

Didn't Gen Eisenhower have a pet Scottie ?

Yes, and so did FDR and Dubya.

And never forget the Scottie Dogs on the old Black and White Scotch ads!

This is my Tosh and he wasn't able to stay away from the screen during the Westminster this year. He whined a bit when the judge first passed Sadie by in the last minutes, but then jumped for joy when she was awarded Best of.

The next day he asked for a haircut.

I think Scotties personify (or canine-ify) the perceived personality of Scottish people. Grumpy - but cute and loveable !

My Bridget is never grumpy. She is the sweetest and most quiet dog I have ever had the pleasure of companioning. She never has a complaint. But cute and loveable to be sure!
Regards,

Regards,

Tosh is my third Scottish Terrier and none have been grumpy; all sweet-tempered just as Sadie was described. On the other hand, I've a Deerhound, Barradh, who snorts and grumps from one end of the day to the other.
