AKC / Eukanuba Dog Show Pictures

Hi Ho! As promised, here are some pictures from the dog show that my mom and dad went to on Saturday.


Here's a Wire Fox Terrier. He looks like he would rather be at home blogging than at the show.



Here's his cousin the Smooth Coat Fox Terrier. He couldn't hold still to take a picture but I got his profile. I like his face, with his little floppy ears. Too cute!



And here is the Flat Coat Retriever. Mom fell in love with this little guy. He was huge and he was still a young one, only a year old. They are great pooches, lots of fun and probably the silliest of the Retriever bunch.



And here are the Field Spaniels. The one on the right is the mom, Shirley and on the left her daughter Susie. Such sweet little girls.



Look out for this tough guy! He's a Dandie Dinmont Terrier and he's not one to mess with!



Here's an English Setter, he couldn't be bothered...



One day mom is going to get a Clumber Spaniel, one day.



Here's an Akita named Valentine. Look at her side, can you tell why?



And for all the Airedale people out there, here's a sweetie with a great profile! Look at those eyebrows!



Bassetts look so sad, even when they are happy. Don't you just want to moosh his face and give him kisses?!



Here is the majestic Belgian Tervuran. Need I say more?



And finally here a sweet American Water Spaniel. She was so tired, maybe it was because she is the NUMBER ONE American Water Spaniel in the country. Bless her little heart.

Well that's it - why you ask? Because mom and dad's camera died. Not a temporary death mind you, a major wire malfunction, send in to the factory and hope they can fix it kind of death. So there will be no pictures for a while but I'll still be updating.

I got SIX CARDS today, can you believe it?! We are so blessed to have so many poochie friends. God bless you all!!!

Excellent pix! Were those the best in breed for each? If so, the wire is Aristocrat..A fine looking wire! I wouldn't want to be a show dog, I hate being groomed!

I'm way too silly to be a show dog. I'd jump all over the judge and get in trouble.

Boomer and his mom Carol said...

Buster - I'm pretty sure the dog was a Champion but not the Best in Breed. These were the dogs showing during the "Meet the Breed" portion of the show, which took place before the major show but after all the qualifications.

Zach - I think it's good to be silly!

So many spaniels! I love them all especially those field spaniels.....I think I'm in love!!

Hey Boomer--

do you get jealous when your parents are looking at those other dogs? i get jealous when they look at them on tv!

sometimes people ask if i'm a clumber spaniel because i have a similar body shape and i have the clumber face--jowly and goofy. my mawma always roots for them in the shows since the corgador is not recognized by the akc. fascists.

Boomer,

all cute dogs, but none as cute or handsome as your lovely self.

And yeah, like Wally, I'm curious to know if you get jealous of the attention all those doogs are getting from your ma.

Chow for now,

Tin Tin xo

Sam - the English Springer Spaniel "Diamond Jim" won. He is a handsome example of the breed, though I think Loui tops him.

Tin and Wally, I don't get jealous because I know mom loves us three pooches more than anything. Sure the other dogs are cute, but they aren't like my sister Annie, my brother Snickers or myself. Besides, if they got another dog, Turbo would poop in their shoes.

Ummm..... is it just me or do all of those dogs looked like they would all rather be blogging??

Look at how p$ssed that Airedale looked, she (looks like a she) sure was letting people know she would rather be muddy!!!

Clumber Spaniels are soooo funny, we have one here at shows too and he is surprisingly active. Jumps up trying to get his ball during judging. Of course, all his facial layers flips and flops when he does that.

Love nibbles,
Miss Sunshade
