Dog Shows are a ripoff!!

Alright. It must be a conspiracy. So, Moses, Camber, and I are watching the Dog Show on Animal Planet tonight and I'm quite upset. Now, all dogs are wonderful. They are all special. But. why hasn't a corgi won one of these dog shows? Now, if a corgi has won, well, that's great. Please let me know. But, we watch these dog shows almost every time they come on and corgi's never even place.

Know what won in the category the corgi was in (not a breed category)??

A poodle.

I mean, the poodle ALWAYS wins. Yeah, they're all poofy and majestic and all that stuff. but corgi's kick butt in the personality and just plain cuteness factor.-hands down. Corgi's FRAP--poodles are afraid of messing up their manicures. Corgi's like food--a lot. Poodles-probably have very sensitive tummies and are probably very picky eaters.

OK. Before I get a bunch of responses touting the attributes of the majestic Poodle, let me remind you that this is all in jest. I just wish that Corgi's got their due at these shows, you know? For all of us, our Corgi's always win the blue ribbon. And I hope, by the end of the show, that maybe, just maybe, the corgi will be honored on the podium.

It's rather cliche when you think about it isn't it? I'd like to see another breed of dog win, not just the popular ones.

I'd love to see a corgi win or a borzoi (My sister has a borzzie) and they are gorgeous dogs! But, I've never seen any place even in the BIS round.

Well, let's hope there's a change soon!

Comment by Elys on January 31, 2009 at 10:24pm: I don't know if they've ever won in their group, to be honest. Is there a Fabulous Corgi Group? Well, there should be!

Comment by Elys on January 31, 2009 at 10:23pm: I hear ya, sister. I think that I'm just totally OVER poodles now. I do agree about the personality contest, though. There'd be no contest there.

Comment by Sarah C. on January 31, 2009 at 10:09pm: They win in their group sometimes?

Comment by Michelle on January 31, 2009 at 9:52pm: I know we are UNDER REPRESENTED.....My consolation is that if it was a personality contest, well there just would not be a contest would there? It just kills me everytime they parade a german shepard through the ring in the herding group. I was raised on a cattle farm during which we had a herds of other animals and I have never seen or heard of a german shepard rounding up the masses. Maybe I missed something. Go Corgis!!!!
