Love, love, love

I've been somewhat free tonight, so I've been able to watch the Westminster Dog Show. I've gotten past the desire to go out and get a new dog Right.This.Minute! We're heading into Best in Show in a minute and I'm rooting for that cute little Doberman. She's so pretty and perky.

Leo has been watching with me and I wouldn't be surprised if he's rooting for her, too.

You know, the German Shepherd is pretty handsome and so is the Kerry Blue Terrier. I'm not so sure about the Pekingese, or the Wire Haired Dachshund, but really, I don't think there are any losers in this group.

It almost makes a chocolate-less Valentine's Day worthwhile.

ETA: Fifi the Doberman was robbed by that hairy Pekingese. Leo is so sad...

Why no chocolate? I heard the NPR story on the Show this morning and was tickled when they said, " no money was won, but there may be breeding opportunities.". Sounds like the hairy pup is getting lucky, hahaha. (middle school humor)

The doberman got robbed. That peke was nothing special and personally I get tired of the little floor mops winning these shows.

We, of course, were rooting for the dachshund - she is gorgeous, although ours is a smooth coat - and it has been forever since a dachshund had won it's group to go to BIS.

Is it just me being snarky, but did you find the judges outfit [the woman who judged BIS] to be just a weeeeeeeeeeee bit over the top in the "that's a train wreck" category? I know they are supposed to wear evening attire, but that was a gold lame sausage dress, with an embroidered disco coat I remember seeing sometime in my youth. It distracted me from the pups, I gotta say. [ok, I'm done now. heehee]

No chocolate on Valentine's Day? Is that allowed?

Brenda said...

I just have to repeat what Alice said. No chocolate?!?! Oh well...there is always another day. I made a chocolate cake for the hubby and family.

Mike still has the manflu so I bought myself chocolate. Although now that I think about it I should have looked for some fair trade chocolate - oops.

We watched Top Hat instead of the dog show - I forgot it was on! But Fred & Ginger didn't disappoint, so it was ok.

I totally agree. Why do the froo-froo dogs win so often?
