Dog loving Peas - Westminster tonight!

Thanks for the heads up! I love to watch Westminster. I am always rooting for the dachshunds and German Shepherd. My two favorite breeds. It comes on at 7pm CT on CNBC tonight and Tuesday night at 7pm CT on USA. Kind of weird that they are switching channels from one night to the next this year.

I've got my TV set to the channel so I'll be sure to catch it.

Thanks for the reminder. No basketball or hockey for us tonight, so this is perfect!

So excited that the shih tzu won best in group!!! We have Sadie a tri color (black/white/tan) 8 month old shih tzu and I previously owned Tiffany and b/w shih tzu for 14 years.

LOVED the sheep dog!!

Woohoo for the shih tzu!!! Although we keep Remy the killer shih tzu trimmed in a puppy cut, I could never keep up with that fancy hairdo!

My friends kerry won Best of Breed today.  Watch for Mercedes tonight

I know they should be in a separate group. I don't know if they go as a toy dog or with the mastiff's group. They had the wrinkle dog last night with the herding group I think. I saw him but I would think they could put the bulldog with him.

Watched this late last night (might have been a rebroadcast). Swagger (the Old English Sheepdog) was a gorgeous dog but I also loved the German Shepard who came in 4th place. I'm partial to GSD as I had one for 14 years, my dear Holly who passed away a few years ago. They are such intelligent dogs. The GED on last night had such a beautiful gait as he/she was trotting (is that what you call it in dogs?) around the ring.

When will the Working Dogs group be on? Did I miss that or will it be on tonight? I always watch out for the Bernese Mountain Dog because my parents have one, and the first dog we ever had when I was 8 years old was a St. Bernard. My family likes big dogs A dog's not a dog unless he's at least hip high in our house, well at least that's what we're used to They sure do eat a lot though.

The German Shepard dog was really cool. Didn't they say he was a rescue dog, with the Seattle PD I thought they said. Yea excited for the ones tonight.

Thanks BusyPea. Sorry to hear your report on the Berner online judging today. What did you think about the Berner who made the best of breed last year? I thought he/she was beautiful and an excellent example of the breed. Do you have one yourself?

Debbie in MD.

I understand. I'm so sorry for your loss of Lily.

My parents lost their first Berner Albert to cancer at the age of 4. My father was utterly devastated. It was very sudden and unexpected. For him the answer was to find a top notch breeder after doing even more research than he did the first time (when he thought he'd found the best breeder he could find) and get a puppy as soon as he could to ease the pain. Max joined the household almost 4 years ago. He is extremely healthy and such a love bug (these dogs are so loving and friendly, aren't they?). When I visit, which is fairly often, our routine is I have to sit immediately on their sofa and he launches himself on top of the sofa and tries to sit on my lap like a lap dog, licking my face, ears and hands and letting me know how much he has missed me.

I would have one if I could in a minute, but DH doesn't really want another dog, sadly. So I live vicariously through Max, who loves me like I'm his own anyway.

Yes, I heard that and was actually shocked he did that too. Cool!

And I laughed at the commentator from the first night. In the non-sporting group he said "And there is the chow." It was not a chow it was a Keeshond. I have had 3; I know! I wonder if anyone called him on that other than me.
