Uno won the best in show on the Westminster Kennel Club. Uno moved into Monday night's judging in the hound group. The best in show award has been presented 100 times by the Westminster Kennel Club. He is nearly 3, tri-colored and 15-inchs with pleading, golden-brown eyes and plenty of tail-wagging personality, is came with his favorite stuffed frog toy and the fluffy pillow he sleeps on. Uno could break out of the Westminster doghouse. No beagle has even won the hound group since 1939.
Amazed, this is over the news. I had a thought, there are over 150 breeds entered in this show every year. The announcer always says, during the judging, "The judge is looking for the one dog that epitomizes the breed." When I think about it, I wonder why, out of all those breeds, are essentially the same ones picked? I bet there are over 100 breeds that have never been picked for best in group, let alone best in show. Why is that? Have all of those thousands of breeders never been able to produce a close to perfect dog? Or is it perhaps bias at work, and is the whole thing just political?
