Groups and Best in Show are judged in the big arena at The National Dog Show Presented by Purina.  There are thousands of people, lights, TV cameras, a PA system and announcer, music, and a whole lot of photographers!  I’m sure it is very daunting for some dogs who are not used to being in the spotlight at a large show.  It was interesting to watch their reaction to moving TV cameras and the sound of camera shutters firing in rapid succession.  Some were not at all interested and others paid very close attention and even barked at the TV camera.  I’m pretty sure this pup is looking at me and asking, “Did you get my best side?”  🙂

Be sure and watch The National Dog Show Presented by Purina on NBC immediately following the Macy’s Parade on Thanksgiving Day!
