The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show stole our hearts again
There’s no debate that all dogs are good dogs. But some dogs are great dogs, and it’s the job of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show to figure out which are great.
Make sense?
On Tuesday night, WKC crowned the 144th winner of Best in Show, tabbing Siba, the standard poodle, the champion.
WHAT A NIGHT!
