I watched the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show for a while last night. I like to see the dogs but, it seems like the people are so bizarre that I end up watching them even more than the dogs.

I think fashion week just finished up in New York City and now the dog show is like the un-fashion week. All those badly fitting suits and ugly, ugly shoes. And then even worse than the fashion is the weird way the handlers take treats out of their mouths and then feed them to the dogs.

Yuck. I wonder if any of the dogs are grossed out that they have to eat treats pre-soaked in the saliva of their badly dressed handlers. The handlers always seem more flighty and nervous than any of the dogs. I’m sure the dogs are very well trained and well behaved so I can’t understand why they have to have constant treats to make them stand still.

The Akita, named Redwitch Reason To Believe, won the working dog category.
