The show, which ran from May 6-9, had several other categories including hound group, herding group and sporting group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cider the English Settler was wagging with delight after winning the Sporting Group category of the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A Bracco Italiano named Lepshi won his breed\u2019s debut at the United States\u2019s most prestigious dog show \u2014 a dog which happened to be co-owned by country music and 1883 series star Tim McGraw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Each group winner advances into the Best Show category which is the last event of the dog show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2022, Trumpet the bloodhound took the title of Best in Show, making him the first bloodhound to win the Westminster Dog Show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “Like all things, beauty is subjective,” said Ann Ingram, who travelled from Cork, Ireland, to New York City to judge several events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “A dog’s attitude in the ring can help. If the dog loves itself, you can tell. He kind of has that attitude of, you know, ‘I’m a winner’.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n In short: There are the obvious characteristics \u2014 the quantifiable ones \u2014 and then there are the intangibles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “With breeds like Frenchies and bulldogs, where there are health concerns with the breathing, you want to see them be able to move without any signs of distress,” Ms Ingram said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A spirited trot or swishy, excited wag of the tail may signify an excellent performance for one breed, but subpar training for another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some dogs were bred to hunt lions (Rhodesian Ridgeback), while others are bred to be affectionate puffballs (Pekingese). Others are arrogant or aloof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ms Ingram says that when you approach an Afghan hound, “They actually look through you, rather than at you,” because they’re bred to be far-seeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “It’s like, ‘You’re disturbing my vision \u2014 could you move’?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n ABC\/Wires<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Posted 7h ago7 hours ago, updated 7h ago<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Buddy Holly, Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show\uc5d0\uc11c ‘\ucd5c\uace0\uc758 \uac1c’ \uc6b0\uc2b9\uc73c\ub85c \uc2ec\uc0ac\uc704\uc6d0 \uc5f4\uad11 Buddy Holly\ub294 \ub274\uc695\uc2dc\uc5d0\uc11c \uc5f4\ub9ac\ub294 \uc5f0\ub840 Westminster Kennel Dog Show\uc5d0\uc11c \ucd5c\uace0\uc758 \uc1fc\ub85c \uc120\uc815\ub418\uc5c8\uc2b5\ub2c8\ub2e4.
