There are some great shots of Rum on Victor Steele's website from the Beltway Bandits tournament (range 51-79) www.victorsteele.biz. What a cutie. In the same range there is one pic of Franklin on page 12 - a very "reaching" box shot. Wonder what he did to turn from it -- Janet...

Some of these are too funny. My favorite is the Shar Pei/Basset. They call it a Sharp Asset. http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/americancaninehybridclub.htm

Just the other day, I had someone from this list contact me privately concerning my up-coming swissy litter. I hope they see this and contact me again, I somehow deleted the e-mail address. To answer your questions: Yes, they are AKC champions, yes, they have the health clearances you asked about...

Very funny.. check your local pound.. talk about unique! Diddy, you're feeding a troll.

I admit that I think the Best lineup this year was stronger than it has been in a number of years. There were a number of dogs I really liked going in--the Bloodhound who won in FL, the Pyr, the Tibbie. Didn't really think about the GSP. BC was eh--not my kind of dog. I just don't get Pekes--it...

Could someone who saw Selleck's movie Sunday night tell me the breed of dog(Reggie) that he adopted after the first murder? Thanks in advance. Danny

I found five pitbull pups on the side of the road, they are one month old i would like to know what to feed them a were to get help for them

It seems that in this area at least (northeast Ohio), the classifieds are flooded with people trying to sell pug puppies.. anywhere from $350-$600 most state AKC (as I understand it that's pretty meaningless really). I'm just looking for a 'family pet', I'm of course watching the shelters and...

There's one person running Siberian Huskies in this year's Yukon Quest. He's Blake Freking, who won last year's Beargrease. Questions about working-type Siberians have come up a few times recently, and the Yukon Quest website just put up a nice article on Blake and his dogs that talks a bit about...

What is your opinion of the best dog breed of these three, Shih tzu Japanese chin maltese Any owners of these breeds have advise. I work eight hour shifts and need a dog that can entertain itself for that amount of time, as well as be sweet and kind.

Not sure how they "get away" with it. I am watching TV now --part 1 of the show. I guess all the rules are made to be broken! Sorry, I don't mean to sound flippant, but the shows are obviously getting too big to supervise all of the pre-show activity. ~~~~ I wanted to ask if anyone knows about...

PLEASE CROSSPOST WIDELY!! THIS IS THEIR LAST CHANCE...the end of the road!! http://www.petfinder.org/pet.cgi?action=1&pet.Shelterid=WV39 The county is forcing her to GAS ALL animals not rescued by this weekend. A transport is already arranged to get to Hagerstown, MD, and also DC metro areas.

Newbie question..... When watching shows on TV (in the group only) that usually only 4 dogs are pulled out and "place". Is this true in the breed ring? On the Westminster web page, and presumably at other shows, there are 4 placements in a breed. Best of Breed (BOB), Best of Opposite Sex...
