@goldensrbest -

I am!

Usually I just love watching these shows but looking into some of these dogs sweet eyes just made me cry cause I miss having our dogs so much.

Also, it seemed like they ran thru the terrier group and I am always annoyed how they always seem to showcase the same breed in this group.

But what do I know?! I guess it is as they say, the one who "represents" his breed the best.

And never a golden win? come on!

Or the wonderful labs.

It is just hard to see how they chose sometime but I am not a judge for sure.

I will always remember that little "Affinpincher" named Banana Joe, who just won everyone's hearts. Not my favorite breed but he really stole the show. It is said he had won 86 other best in shows but never Westminster and the first of his breed to win that.After the show, he was rewarded with a much deserved retirement. That was 2013 I believe.

@on the bay. Politics are alive and well in the dog show world. I have similar objections and no longer watch them. I despise the AKC and that doesn't enhance the experience either.

Yes. We have it on on Peacock TV.

To any other cord cutters who might be having trouble watching the dog show since it is on NBC. There's a deal on right now for a year's Peacock TV premium subscription for $39.99 vs the usual $49.99. If you want monthly, there's no discount and it is $4.99 a month--but there's a 7 day free trial for monthly premium.

You can watch Westminster [Edited: I mean National Dog Show] live on one of the Peacock premium channels [NBC Sports], which is what I'm doing. It's great!

You can also watch NBC by purchasing a simple, inexpensive interior antenna, without cable or satellite and in HD. You'll get all the local channels plus 50-60 more.

I think dog shows are fixed. Winners are known before it starts. Those that win are most of the time not the dogs that should have won.
