And The Winner Is...

"Rufus" the colored Bull Terrier won the Westminster Dog Show yesterday. He came across as a poised calm and cool pro. Like the Pug, the Bull Terrier has one of those faces that you have to love because it's so unusual. Many of the finalists in the competition could've won best-in-show last night: the Golden Retriever, the Dalmation, the Scottish Deerhound, etc.. An overall good group of finalists this year.

The Terrier Group, my personal favorite, is the winningest dog group in the history of the competition, so it's really no surprise that another Terrier won again this year. There's just something about them that attracts humans to them despite their sometimes quirky behavior.

Here's "Rufus" in all his glory:
