Here’s a breed that you may not see every day at the park … the Bergamasco.  This breed is a herding dog with three different types of hair.  The flocks or loose mats that cover the dog’s body protect it from predators and weather.  Such a fun dog to watch in the show ring … and probably everywhere else for that matter!

Reserve Best in Show (which wasn’t shown on TV) at The National Dog Show Presented by Purina went to English Springer Spaniel, “Timmy” (GCh Cerise Blindside) with handler Howard Huber, Jr.  From my observation, Timmy apparently loves to give kisses!  If anyone has a particular breed that they would like to see, let me know and I’ll check my photos from the show and post your favorites!

The National Dog Show Presented by Purina will re-air tonight (Saturday, 11/26/16) on NBC.  Check local listings for the time in your area.  Here’s a photo of the beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog in the Group Judging.  Each and every group winner is shown on TV via the “steady-cam” – a hand held camera that is at the dog’s level for a great close up!  Unfortunately the individual judging of each dog isn’t seen on TV due to time constraints.  You can view the judging of each breed online here:  http://www.nbcsports.com/dog-show
