Real life

'Best in Show' was not a spoof.  It was real.  What a hilarious movie, but discovered it was actually a documentary when we visited the Cochrane Dog Show this morning.  There that movie unfolded.  Daughter, grandchildren and I wandered the arenas and kennels of very interesting dogs, but it was the handlers and owners who took the cake. 

"Have you ever noticed," I had said before we had even walked in the front door, "that show-dog people on TV are usually fat women and gay men?"  Hey, it's true.  Dog-show people are, well, weird??  They dote on things the rest of us give absolutely no thought to.  Ah well,  I loved all my now-dead dogs.  Here are a few of the live varieties we enjoyed this morning:

Told the owner these guys were better looking than most people.  She agreed!

The sixties hair look

This guy was huge!  Feasts on paper.

Bow-drying the muzzle.....weird?

No clue what this poor creature was?!

Daughter became emotional looking at this beauty because she had one exactly like her.  Sadly, "P" died very young.
