<p>There was a red brindle bitch (I think, anyway) in the final Cardi round-up who was so out of coat and/or small that she looked positively minuscule compared to the ENORMOUS dogs in the ring with her. I couldn't help but giggle at the ridiculous difference in size!</p>

<p>I've never seen anything like it. Such intense focus, competitive concentration, jockeying for position, fanatical attention to detail, yet all done with aplomb.</p>
<p>Even the dogs were sort of interesting.</p>
<p>None of those guys could compare to Gromit, Waffle, Sparkle, Monty, Maggie, or RickyRafa.</p>

<p>What I's REALLY like to see is Joey, Katey, Hank, and Bevy Lou out there smellin' of cow pie and horse sweat amongst them pampered,blow-dried city slicker show dogs, who'd wanna get on the first train west once they find out what a real werkin' dog's life is like... (I got nuthin against blow-dried show dogs, having two of 'em myself).</p>
<p>We were offered a bribe to sneak Al in as a double for one of the tris -- we were offered a flight to Texas on a corporate jet and a Carnival Cruise Line trip! -- but we turned it down.

<p>Milo, I go to a couple of shows a year when Gromit & Sparkle's breeders are in town showing "family." It's great fun to see top notch corgis all groomed up and looking their best. The show people are always all stressed out but the corgis remain happy, it's all a grand day out for them with extra treats!</p>
<p></p>

<p>Every year I say I have to go to the show...thanks for posting this - I forgot they post the breed competition. I just can't get enough of watching corgis smile - they're the best dogs in the world. Thanks Doug for posting. Any new videos from Gromit and Sparkle??</p>

<p>I just watched sections of the video. The first two red and whites were quite large, but there were two or three after that that looked about average size, and a tri at about 9 minutes in who was downright petite (and I think won something or other; I saw it in the photo ops at the end).</p>

<p>I agree the Cardis have been getting bigger, but not sure about the Pems. My Madison is a retired show dog, and she's 28 pounds-- high end of the standard for a bitch. Jack is oversized at 33.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Anyway, I personally met the BOB winner from the Pem Nationals a couple years back, and she was noticeably smaller than either of mine. I don't know her weight, but I'd guess about 25 pounds, tops. </p>

<p>I love when she is looking at the 1st cardi (black and white) and it goes to kiss her and she kisses it back! So adorable!</p>
