The rest of them are fun to watch but a little scary LOL.

BTW - at any significant dog show like Westminster or Eukanuba (which Wynn and Laine's Brother won - BTW puff puff) none of the people walking the dogs in the ring would be owners, they almost all would be professional handlers at that level. So, the movie is a little untrue in that regard.

wow...good to know...and so some of the dog owner are stage parents eh?

I have always wanted a show dog - I've always thought it looked fun...but I've never had $$ for a pure breed dog so I've always had mutts

I like mutts. I just got involved with Scotties when I became a surrogate parent to Maggie and Mimi, who are now both deceased The thing about mutts is they can get such good traits from any number of breeds. The downside is they can also get health problems due to inconsistent breeding. But, I say mutts are gonna happen and I am glad there are good homes for them
