Sending best wishes to David Frei tonight on his final Westminster broadcast.  My interest in dog shows developed from watching Westminster year after year on TV and listening to David’s commentary about each of the breeds.  I always dreamed of attending a dog show one day … never realizing that there were many in my area that I didn’t even know about!  What a thrill to finally attend my first show in Harrisburg, Pa. in 2006 and meeting not only Westminster winner, Colored Bull Terrier “Rufus” (Ch Rocky Top’s Sundance Kid), but David Frei as well!  I wish him the best in his future projects with NBC and will absolutely miss his golden voice on future Westminster broadcasts.  (Photo:  Calling All Dogs Walk – 2015 / Grace, David & Angel)
