I'm so excited for the dog show this weekend!
This year we're showing him several times for agility and obedience.
We're hoping the judges will notice he has the strongest gait for his breed.
We're going to crush the competition because we're champions, aren't we Fido?
Last year we took home the blue ribbon at the annual 2008 Purebred Dog Show.
He's won Best in Show for three straight years because of his exceptional muscle tone.
I have a friend who's way into dog shows.
But dog shows are all about winning, and not about the dogs at all.
It's not fair for a dog to be stuck in a crate all day.
I don't think dog shows are all that cruel.
The dogs get pampered and played with constantly – what's so cruel about that?
Being showered with treats and flattery is as far from cruelty as you can get.
I don't think dogs mind, and it gives owners a way to show off their best friend.
