2008: Uno Wins!

Who could forget “Uno,” the adorable Beagle who won the coveted Best in Show category at last years annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show? While “Uno” has enjoyed the status of top dog, and the media exposure that the prestigious award brings; it’s time to get ready for 2009’s 133rd installment of the beloved Dog Show!

Beginning next Monday, February 9th 170 Breeds and Varieties will be judged (including Sporting, Hound, Working, Terrier, Toy, Non-Sporting, and Herding). You can tune into the live events Monday on USA Network from 8-9PM (ET) and continuing on CNBC from 9-11PM (ET). Tuesday’s live coverage will air on USA Network from 8-11PM (ET).

2009 welcomes the Dogue de Bordeaux breed, which will be eligible to compete for the first time, within the Working Group. With their massive stature (described as having quite possibly the largest head in the canine world!), this new addition will certainly make for fun and interesting viewing!

Don’t forget to tune into the action, and make sure to check back here for a complete round up of the events!
