Title: Westminster

I am sure that Howard wanted the damn poodles or the shih tzus to win; I was hoping that the Neopolitan Mastiff ("Fang") would make the cut...but nope...it was the Beagle...

I don't get the love affair with the poodle.  All these dogs are groomed to look their absolute best but the poodle looks like a freakin' hedge outside a ritzy hotel that Edward Scissorhands just got a hold of.  It's like they cut a damn clown suit into their fur.

Out of the finalists, I was glad to see the beagle win.  Don't care for em' myself but anything was better than one of those poodles.

According to my wife (who laps at the teet of the veterinary industry) poodles are supposed to have that poofy cut according to breed standards.  They were originally bred as "water dogs" so the increased amount of fur at the joints is designed to keep them warmer.  And gay-er.

We own a Weimaraner, so we were pulling for it.  I wouldn't recommend ever owning one, however, as they destroy your home, wake you up at all hours of the night, and frequently vomit and shit in the most hidden and obscure places.  Kind of like living with Ogre during college.

I want to see a bassett hound win next year.  

That, or a bird dog.

We own a Jack Russell, a Lab and a dog that looks like a Lab, but her daddy might have been a traveling man. 

Guess what, they act like Weimeraners.

I thought shitting under the couch cushion was clever, until we had people sleep over and needed to use the hide-a-bed.  Lest you forget that I don't vomit, that's your forte.

Or, on rare occasions, do both at the same time.   :puke:   :shit:

Jacks. Damn dogs from hell. If you have time to spend with them (A LOT) they are happy. If not, you are not happy. And you better have at least 6 feet of fence to keep the little bastards from jumping over. Needless to say, he went to live with my uncle in the country. One damn happy dog now. He chases anything that moves. You just can't walk in the yard without falling into a 3 foot hole. Diggy little bastard.

My choc. lab that I named Aubie, years ago, was the best dog I ever owned. EVER. But alas, I let him keep his nuggets and he escaped from the yard looking for SOME and got hit by a car. I haven't been that close to a dog since.

Had a Golden. Nice dog. Just never would calm down. My son at 6 years old learned how to lure her into her pen and then lock the door. She played way too rough. And she was 3 yrs old.

So if you have all 3 of those, you must be saving up for new furniture.
