Around here, we like things.
And one of those things, is dogs.

So tonight we are blessed with a COVID miracle – the second night of the Westminster Dog Show. This weekend marks the 145th iteration of the event – the second-oldest continuously held sporting event behind the Kentucky Derby – which began Saturday at Lyndhurst Mansion, a National Trust for Historic Preservation property, in Tarrytown, New York.

Because of COVID restrictions in New York, there are no fans allowed, and I guess MSG was apparently busy not hosting Knicks or Rangers playoff games. So, that’s why they went upstate.
Last year’s winner was a Standard Poodle named Siba,
the first win for a poodle since 1991. Who wins tonight will be anyone’s guess, although the smart money is on little rat dogs like Papillons, Shih Tzus, or some other shitty runt from the Toy group. [Late edit – the Pekingese! Which won the Toy group.]
But who cares – it’s just one more delight on our screens this evening.

Who feels the need to photoshop out a dog’s butthole? Fucking weirdo!
Looks like the kontent elves have logged in to Horatio’s accounts and are writing posts for him in advance of his deadlines.
I ordered a Bob Ross sun shade for our car / for our upcoming road trip.
Lady BFC is either going to laugh or give me the ole “what the hell is wrong with you?” Either way, it’s a win.
My little buddy Bowie. I’m kind of his step-dad. He’s goofy as shit, but a really good boy.
DUKE!
When we lived in Montana, Gumby’s admin used to bring her dogs to work. One of them looked just like this, two different eyes too! There were 3 dogs, sometimes 4 if Bear was there. They all used to pile in the snocat and tear around the field.
I thought it was neck, back, p*ssy & crack?
Up in South Lake Tahoe this week. The drive was long, as SacTown is always a traffic jam. Exercises a lot upon arrival. I regret not getting more to eat at dinner, but that half lb burger was good. Thinking of eating at a diner tomorrow for breakfast. Not sure yet
Just fished a moth out of my beer.
I’m assuming it died happy.
I am fucking exhausted
You should have taken a nap before. She said.
That doesn’t bode well for Monday morning.
Nope
A shower beer in the morning should hair of the dog you.
I think this asymmetry qualifies you as a batman villain
Wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle.
You lying bastard, 1 out of those 6 is apparently fine.

A good meal when you can’t waddle the half mile to bed
No one offer me a wafer thin mint
Or a bucket?
Oopsie!
Fetch the bucket.
Of course the fucking tribble won.
Just said that to Mrs. Cola, the damn mop won.
I have a theory that the big dogs never win because big dogs look stupid when you prep them for a show. Little dogs, on the other hand, have no reason to exist other than to be shaved, dyed, primped, and curled for other people to mock.
They have the same faults, but they’re smaller and therefore harder to see
No surprise here. There was a lot of mob money on the Pekingese.
COVID was all a plot to help the commie dog win.
This old white lady is going to give best in show to “La La Land”, isn’t she?

Baby’s got back!
Can’t really be a dog show judge unless you have a mighty hump.
Anything but the Pekingese.
About 14 years ago, my sister’s then-young kids badgered her to get a puppy.
You all know how this goes — the kids promise to take care of the dog and do all the chores, but pretty soon the kids lose interest and it’s Mom’s job.
She was ok with it, though. Marley became her best friend and loyal companion, until she passed last week.
Pour out some kibble for a good dog:
Did she only read the first half of ‘Marley & Me’?
Ironic choice to have the Samoyed (pronounced “Sammy-Ed”) come out to Van Hagar’s “Right Now”.
These Best in Show memes are really enhancing the dog show, bravo!
We had ribs for dinner. They were delicious.
Better than these?
Dear God. Gumby sends me gross food pics, here’s a beauty
Better in paste form
I had a westie when I was a kid. Mr. Shag. He was a great dog, soooo smart. And in the part of Scotland I lived in, they were everywhere. Usually at least one in every pub, and tons of Scottish deerhounds too.
