Turns out a photographer friend of mine recently took some pics of the dog that just won Best of Breed for Anatolian Shepherds at Westminster. To see the pictures of 'Gator', check out Tracey Bish Photography on the internet. He is a handsome dog! And yes, I love it that a sighthound won Best of Show! I had the privilege of sharing life with two retired greyhounds for nearly ten years. Best dogs I EVER had!!!!!

I do think the dog that won Best in Show is a rather scroungy looking breed. He was a beautiful dog, but not the most attractive breed.

I think that dog that looks like an old fashioned floor mop is interesting...I wonder how long it takes to wind up all its hair like that - although it probably stays pretty well like that a long time. And I wonder what it looks like if someone does not wind up its hair? Perhaps that would be an incredible frizz? - The all time definition of a bad hair day?

One of my colleagues at the high school where I retired from in SD, has dogs she takes to a diff state to train them for dog show. Huge sheep dogs and adorable.
Next time you watch this show, look for the Water Spaniels. I grew up with a wonderful WS, and his name was Laddie. He was a beautiful color or colors.
