That blood hound looked exactly like the one DH and I had. His name was Moonshine! 150 pounds of love!

That is the BEST name for a bloodhound!

makeup addict, I think I heard them say the peek was young and was very nervous

so, they asked to take him out. Not sure who 'they' are owner or judge.

Lola, they're adorable!

Yay for the Shih Tzu and rooting for the Lhasa. Have one of each, curled up and fast asleep (one is snoring) next to me. They're my 'lil best in shows {#emotions_dlg.wub}

You're so right, magemay! We each have a Best In Show already!

Back in the 80's, the Yorkie Best of Breed winner, Ch. Shadow Mountain Sparrow Hawk, was the sire of my female's litter and we were watching him show in group on TV while she was carrying his pups. Talk about exciting!

Oh Wow, that must have been a pinch me, I can't believe it moment! How exciting!

They are my passion and every time I watch the shows or even see other dogs, I want more.

Our little shih tzu passed away 3 years ago at the age of 19. She was adopted at the age of 3. My husband took her passing so hard that he said absolutely no more.

A year after she passed and late one morning, I took some donations to our local shelter, walked in and our eyes met and knew I was in trouble. Took some pictures of a shaven-to-the-skin, black and white, rib showing little shih tzu boy and cried all the way home.

My husband remained steadfast until about 5pm and surprised me when he said "Well, let's go take a look."

We flew down there, I drove.... fast. Couldn't wait to get there, I was so afraid he may not be there when we arrived.

They brought him out to us, looked very serious and said, "We have something to tell you that you should know." My heart dropped. The woman said "He doesn't speak English." Oh my gosh did we laugh. He knew only Spanish!

He was 3 at the time, the same age as our Lhasa, who is now his best bud. And he speaks fluent English, now.....lol and his hair grew in beautifully, so did his little pudgy tummy!

We're so happy he picked us.

Believe me, if a dog is entered in Westminster KC show, he/she is comfortable in the show ring! They have already won their AKC Championship and they and their handlers are pros!

What a sweet, sweet story, magemay! I can't explain why, and it's never easy losing a beloved pet member of the family, but sometimes we're ready to bring in a new puppy right away and sometimes it can take up to six months before we start looking. I do think a new dog almost always helps with your loss and grief -- they are so intuitive.

LOL, that your shelter Shih Tzu only spoke Spanish and now speaks fluent English! It really helps if there is another dog in the household for them to learn from by observation, certainly with puppy training.
