Remember the breed of the winner. That's always a question on NTN.

Oh, sure, you posted the winner faster than I did....

But I added picturesque detail.

I've been away for a few days so if it's been up for a while it is new to me.

2000 was the one year I was there and an English Springer fan went with me. It was almost like winning the Super Bowl. It was one of three times in recent years (six in all) that a Springer won, so they could be called the Steelers of Westminster.

Well, that 4-footer was no Annie, but I do admit that I found that face quite appealing. The winner WAS highly scritchable.
