We used to raise Siberian Huskies. Did some showing ourselves and had a friend who showed some for us. I agree with Dodee Poliltical . but then what isn't these days? It was a fun hobby but expensive. I still love the breed as they are sooooo loving but have a mind of their own. We loved to watch the obedience classes when at a show. It is very difficult to train a Siberian in obedience. This is due to the fact that they have a mind of their own and this is due to the fact that they are a 'working dog'. If they sense trouble ahead 'when pulling' they will go their own way.

watched most of it and I too think that one judge was esp. biased when picking the winners. All four had long hair to the floor. I was rooting for the short haired chihuaua in this group. Had way more personality than the others. I was happy with BOS picks, the beagle and sky terrier.

Just saw the beagle in a commercial, shes precious. I think her name is miss P

I never seem to pick the winner either, but I do love to watch all the gorgeous breeds....I wouldn't want most of them, but love some a lot.....I'm a little dog lover so love seeing the miniature breeds.....they never seem to win, but I still love 'em....

I would be embarrassed if my Siberian pulled like some of the show dogs. She may not able to be a show dog as she some Shiba Inu blood, but she is better behaved in public. I love watching the dog shows, but feel the breeds need some new blood. The health problems magnify with inbreeding. Love the Beagle's personality.

Watched it--was disappointed that Swagger didn't win. Didn't think the beagle was all that special. I think the judges have their favorites and are swayed by that.

always cheer for the bearded collie, our family's choice

My daughter has 2 Weimaraners....that breed never comes close, as so many others don't either......it seems this year there were a few named breeds that I had not heard of before...but I'm not a pro on breeds...have always had heinz57's. Now this may sound mean....but some of the female handlers outfits were very distracting.......

We have Rat Terriers, it was there second year there and Goldens who never win but are a great breed. One is a pup 9 weeks old we just got and he is a cutie pie. Have to empty my camera tomorrow so I can get some pictures of him.
