Thank you!

Spoon Face ..thank you

Thank you so much I went straight to my favorite, the Old English Sheepdog. I love them, would love to have a few.

What are the stars (*) for?

Zsa Zsa Umbra Thanks! I posted the timestamps for the Non Sporting group too. I’m still working on the rest of the groups but I probably won’t be able to get to it til this weekend :)

Amazing dogs! The judge herself is gorgeous and I applaud her choice. My own breed is the Australian Cattle Dog, mines topline isn't straight sadly (she actually has a sadly very prominent wheel/roach back but that's what I get for going through a BYB) The australian shepherd had an AMAZING coat and lovely paws. I've seen far to many aussies with coats that are super "fluffy" It's super nice seeing an ACD that isn't obese too! At our local shows they're all "fattle dogs" and I can't imagine trying to pass one of those through nationals.

Great! My dad had an ACD,Before I was born,Is yours red or Blue?

Love this! We have had two beautiful Bouviers.

Kathryn Kastner congratulations! Bouviers are wonderful dogs!

Finally a Westminster judge who knows what she's actually doing.

Loved Watching #1 Sheltie Condrad. So full of life when he is in the ring!

I would never be able to choose best dog omg. So many stunning dogs.. I want them all to win

GREAT coverage ! Love the breed AND name of the dog on screen! Thank you so much!!❤️🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾❤️

I LOVE Beaucerons. My absolute favorite breed of all, I want one so bad.

Yes our fave also! If we owned a lot of land for it to run around on that’s the dog we’d get

darkwolf262 ikr

I absolutely love the herding and working breeds. One word to the wise though these dogs are not necessarily meant to be or want to be housebound pets. Years ago I foolishly disregarded all warnings against owning the Australian Cattle Dog, big mistake! My cattle dog was up before dawn and made sure everyone else was up, from puppyhood she jumped or climbed every fence no matter how high, dominated or attempted to dominate the other dogs in the house that towered over her, and made trouble unless she was well occupied. The cattle dog is a fantastic dog but like some terriers not for the faint of heart. I have never given up a dog before but I managed to find a home more suited to her temperament, lots of acreage with a more submissive male Aussie Shepherd that enjoyed her company. It really is not enough to love the breed we really do have to consider the dogs long term happiness and our ability to adapt to their needs.

I agree. I'm forever telling people the same. I own black Russians and people see them and think teddy bear. They don't realise they're a working breed and require high maintenance and lifelong training.... The other day I got told to give my poodle a hair cut 🙄😂

The Sheltie is the perfect mix between house pet and farm dog in my opinion. Of course, just as with all herding and working dogs, lots of exercise is needed!

I'm glad they at least mentioned the border collie isn't suitable for house pet.

Tom In Denver they are incredibly intelligent determined loyal and unbelievably strong I fell in love with the breed from ‘ The Road Warrior’. Your dog is so lucky to have been saved and find a home with you!

You are so right. We have an Aussie Cattle Dog-the red heeler variety-who was captured by a rancher here in Colorado. She was probably feral but he believed she was born in the wild. She was two or three years old when he finally trapped her. When he pulled her out of the trap, he thought "She's not so bad" and called Colo cattle Dog Rescue, which is how we got her. For the first seven years, she required two three to four mile walks a day, a good bit of wrestling in the evening and lots of defined jobs. Finally, at age 13, she is starting to slow down. :) I have never known a stronger dog, physically or mentally.

All dogs are just amazing, beautiful all of them happy to be loved & showed.

I used to show my giant schnauzer as a junior handler. She’s old now (retired) though, 11 almost 12! She still acts like a puppy though and she’s a big baby 😂

I’ve heard they’re Very Intelligent,Can you confirm?

I have a miniature schnauzer named Princess

We had a schnauzer beagle mix. Emily lived to be in her 20's

I watched this for the border collie, my favorite dog ever. So beautiful.

Border Collies have always been my favorite breed. Love them

LiLmSzDiVa perfect for agility. So fast

So excited for the Bouvier. It's not over bred.

They were like everything once

Well between the excess of drool and coat care...gladly i think they are safe. 😊👍

Bouviers are nice dogs but they look pretty different now vs. 100 years ago - a good deal more coat and size these days - if that's what you mean by "overbred".

I love Bouviers. I showed one once. He was a huge goofball

All the dogs were great but go Team Bouv!!!

I hope a herding group win wins best in show in 2020. Down with terriers lol they win too much! Finnish Lapphund is my fav from this group. Reminds me of the keeshond with the eyes! love the expression.

Good for the BDF they are great protectors!

Love the Pumi . They are fantastic and very smart . And very cute.

The ears make them look like Mickey Mouse in a way. I love it.

Pumik are great. :)

I love the pumi too!!!! Such a cute dog.

Tony isn't as lovely as Rumor, but he's still a gorgeous dog. One could tell he's very active, as the breed requires, and his easy gait had poor Ken struggling to keep up.

WOOO LAURIE AND WYATT GOOD JOB!!! Wyatt is literally the coolest dog. So chill at the shows.

Brozain yeah so proud of her

The Sheltie moved beautifully and had a glorious coat it's just a shame, in my opinion, that he has that heavy muzzle that is so prevalent in the American lines. This is not the UK Standard for the breed.

Waiting year upon year for an Old English Sheepdog to win this entire show!

R Ca You obvious are not “ shownpeople” or you would remember Ch Fezziwig’s Ceiling Zero. I adore that dog!

Bouviers, bold, beautiful, winners

German shepherds are my life. Mine isn't a show line he is a German working line. Doesn't have the low back. He is my protector and my snuggle bear ❤️

@Steph S I don't understand the sloping back. My friend's mom bred GSDs for the police and they had straight strong backs. They were gorgeous.

@Steph S They are naturally moving like that though.

Work lines are better. Like Steph said they are ruining the breed with the breed standard

working line is best, the show breeders are destroying the breed, every year they get worse

I love Belgian Sheepdogs. They're so sweet.

GSD, Collies, and Shetland Sheepdog. Three way tie! :)

I happily watch all the other dogs being shown in this category but then I see the German shepherd and I shake my head and sigh. Can't believe they are still showing and breeding this things, it's just too extreme and I can't believe they didn't realize they have to tune it down a bit.

completely wrong. The dog looks fine and it’s back looks great. Don’t talk about a breed you don’t know about

@Ravenna S. As someone who has back issues at times...my back hurts just looking. 😂

Silvia C...I agree. I think the breed was meant to have a straight back. This slope is unnatural and I wonder if it doesn't add to the back problems this breed suffers. It is sad.

That specific dog is a little extreme but they aren't all like that

Silvia C agreed

So proud to have a black tri Aussie and a sable rough collie. ♥️♥️♥️

The Brady family had Tiger which was NOT an Old Eng. Sheepdog. He was a bearded collie but, Doris Day in the movie "Please Don't Eat The Daisies" had an Old Eng. Sheepdog!

I've been mixing up Australian Shepherds and Miniature Americans for years. How did that happen? :O

Ii can’t believe it... in November 2020 I will be a owner from Quiche Kenel!

Love The Bearded Collie. And all of them.

Australian shepherds are my dream dogs

Thanks for posting i missed this segment of the show !

Border Collies are so BEAUTIFUL!!! Ugh i can't wait till i can get one, one day

Connie Crawford is right. I was blessed to have one for 10 yrs, You have to give them something to do.

You better have sheep

Dakota Jara Remember, they are considered very active dogs and are probably the most intelligent breed. They need an outlet, a “job”, or they will be very destructive. Research the breed- they are not content to be lapdogs!

The German Shepard 😓😓 who specifies the requirements.... 😭

Yay Laurie !!!!!! Wyatt is gorgeous !

The Australian Cattle dog is my favourite

They let the “best dog” go first 😉

It must be in the name...Debbie...lol. I love ACD's....mine's name is Prissy and I swear she looks just like Wyatt.

I love that one person "Border Collie!" 36:26

I wish they’d upload the full group judging every year on YouTube ;-;

They have completely ruined the GSD back and hind legs

Choose a GSD from a working line because they look the way a Shepherd used to be. Never from a show line, with their dragging hocks on the ground. Shameful.

I agree! I have 2 working line GSD’s who do not have sloping backs. They are both CKC registered and resemble the way GSD’s used to look. And even though they’re both 13 years old can go 24/7! I love them and this is the only type of GSD I will ever have!

Loved it

THAT THE TRUE BODY OF A GERMAN SHEPHERD IF SOMETHING WAS WRONG HE WOULD EVEN BE THERE🤦🏻‍♀️

@bdctrux70 it's a problem in England too

Love this, but wish CC was available

I agree

omg i want the old english sheepdog so CUTE

Obsessed with that Australian! 🥰

14:53 The Cannnan Dog Is One Pharoel Dog For 2,000 Years When They Lived In The Desert. Hooray Aah Yay!

WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO UPLOAD THE 2020 GROUP JUDGING??

The Vallhund was the best

I need the Hound group i love my Basset

The Belgian sheepdog's original name is the Groenendael.

I liked the Pumi and the Buhund!

I love Pumi too! Haven't seen the Buhund yet.

The german Shepard's back and hind legs looked awful !

can someone explain why his hind legs are like that? they don't look normal, did human do this? how?

I agree, I love the GSD, doing this to such a majestic breed should be banned GSD's should be bred for stability, strength and beauty. those back hocks were practically laying on the ground. Shame

@Roslyn Aubrey ur right. with the working line many years ago when we would ‘stack’ them. They saw that and went ‘yes let’s make that permanent’. It’s utterly disappointing and upsetting.

That’s down to some judge deciding they liked the sloping back look. Completely disgusting.

It is disgusting but then the Old English Sheep Dog is also utterly destroyed, how painful to have a mountain of useless fur.

Spanish Water Dog and Bouvier are my favorite

Australian Cattle Dogs, Aussies, German Shepherds, Malionis, Collies, Corgis

Agree with all of those, they were majestic.

Please let me know why there are no videos from all groups?

The Brady Bunch dog was bearded collie. NOT an OES.

I wish that nobody had to like chop off part of a dogs tail just to get points in dog shows(I don’t necessarily know the rules in this but I see stuff like the Bouvier Des Flandres tail is like that which is now mostly for show and in other dog shows this happens a lot) I think that getting rid of some or most of the tail shouldn’t be needed :(

It's not necessary to win

She missed the Belgian breeds!

How was he AKC’s breeder of the year? That’s far from a well bred GSD..

The Aussie was so pretty 😍

Why do they always choose the same type of breeds for choosing the winner ...why not go with a different type of breed that's not known to win as much ...you get tired of looking at the same type of dog that always win

Justice for Elsa!

Dear AKC, The bulldog requires C Section... The Neapolitan Mastiff...eye surgeries.... The GSD....has exaggerated hind legs...its painful to watch them walk. Please speak up...everyone respects you....if you phase out these extremes dogs will live better quality lives. 😊👍 On another note: i have a personal bias against anything that requires artificial insemination. If it cant mount...why reproduce it? How is a dog gonna work and it cant even get laid without human intervention?

AKC has nothing to do with that. The BREED CLUBS write the standard

Beautiful Australian Shepherd ❤️

Do these handlers have to learn the breeds there working with?

michael woods Fun fact- top winning handlers get bonuses for each win the dog gets andcan earn well in excess of $100,000 a year, just like too winning my jockeys make huge dollars.

michael woods Professional handlers have to be familiar with each breed’s “ standard” so they can show them to the best advantage. Judges have to pass written tests on each breed they want to be able to judge. These people are professionals. I have shown dogs since the 1950s when dogshows were lesser known to most people. You had to GO to the show- there was no television coverage then.

Thank you for that

yes they do

Oh the GSD what has happened to them.....sad.

@Charity Blackwell agreed. They can't say that the breed is "evolving" when it's just being destroyed.

@cameron phill are you sure you arent so close you just cant see? Many people...even non enthusiasts...can see the legs dont appear natural.

Pathetic. You all obviously know nothing about K9 structure! Do you even know that almost all top show dogs are dualies! And Rumor is one of the most structurally sound dogs ever produced.

@JustCharlie it is both. They are trained and bred that way

@Kooteh you gonna comment on every post calling out the Germans back? 😂 Also this comment doesn't match your other ones, I thought they were trained that way you said. Now it's a few that have been bred that way?

37:11 Oh My Fur And Whiskers (small gasp) I’m Late I’m Late I’m Late!

I like dogs more than people..

“Dogs are my favorite people.” – Richard Dean Anderson

we all do

same

I like dogs, cats, horses, parrots and probably all animals more than (most) people.

Is the corgi penalized for his Lil mlem he gave the judge? I hope not

Desolate Ink... hope not. That was charming and so totally Corgi! You get a kiss or a very vocal opinionated Corgi. Part of their charm💕

That was the cutest thing 😭 I sure hope not.

Victoria Stillwell should be the judge

Vic stillwell shouldn't be let near any dog of any kind.

amazing

Rough Collies !

That GSD has some baby hind legs....I cringe seeing that.

It’s because sadly, the dogs with the low hocks and sloped backs keep winning, so they keep breeding too

I like it because a true body of a German Shepherd ,I love German Shepherd I have to fill breed training to be in a agility competition

There is a breeder on here called German Shepherd man... His shepherds are beautiful and functional. And beautiful BECAUSE they are functional. 👏💪👍👈

@Kooteh im not sold and a little skeptical. Its getting absurd. The American Pitbull Terrier is structural divinity...its just beautiful to watch a purebred American Pitbull Terrier move...my girl has beautiful long legs. When she runs in the field its almost ethereal. Shes the epitome is physical harmony...ima get her a treadmill upon maturity...so pleased with how shes growing. Her head is beautiful too...goes so perfectly with her body. 😊😀

@Kooteh I hope you continue to have a positive experience and your ideals are seen to come to fruition all around you.

There needed to be a mudi...

I don’t understand how people chose their clothes for the dog shows. It’s like who can be the most outrageous. Weird clothes.

the overbreeding done to the poor GSD is an absolute disgrace, should be illegal to breed animals in a way that harms them like that, same with other poor crippled breeds like the pug, its sad and cruel! ban it!!! the healthy dogs look so much better!

I wish Westminster would have stayed on USA. You let WWE Make y'all switch channels

Did anyone else notice the sloped back on the GSD? Awful

JustCharlie then don’t watch showing if you find it awful. that’s why there is a difference between show and working lines

Difference between show and working. Show dogs aren’t really straight backed.

THAT A TRUE GERMAN SHEPHERD BODYYYYYYYY IF SOMETHING WAS WRONG HE WOULD EVEN BE THERE

GFBC GlenFaughan BorderCollies you obviously know nothing about the dog show world and the GSD

@JustCharlie i specifically said that breeders and handlers do not always love having their dog looking like that. But it is not their decision.

You have to Learn how to minister with out LIEING

what a shame! that german shepherd dog didn't choose to be born that way. that should be illegal

LOL! Only in Western world

German Shepherds belong in the working group not herding.

@Connie Crawford In the UK the name was changed to Alsatian during WWII. The dog was popular in the Alsace region and used in the war by everyone (French, Germans and Brits) so it was just easier not to refer to them with the name of the enemy.. In 1977 the UK (officially) went back to calling these dogs German Shepherds....their original name.

Sue Helms I agreed with you- they used to be in the Working group. Probably AKC decided the GSD belonged in the Herding group because it has “ herd” and “Shepherd” in its Americanname. Of course, in the U.K. The breed’s name is “ Alsatian “ .

How much do those dog showers make? I could do that.

They PAY money to show. Entry fees cost

Why do they hold the treat in front of their faces?

uniqueusername_1024 The handlers want to have that alert expression so the judge can see ear placement, head space, etc- it’s called “ baiting.”

Because the dog will be judged a little better if giving an alert and cheery expression. That way they can judge how their ears sit (how close together, how far forward, how pointy or round Etc) and the shape of the dogs eyes etc

That German shepherd could not walk properly. I would not be surprised if he actually had hip dysplasia...What have they done to them? Do you remember the actual German shepherds?

I love it when people who know almost nothing about breeding dogs comments on how they look. E.g. the GSD.

THE CORGI WAS ROBBED :(

B.S. politics. They all could win.

All dogs are winners!

French fries 🍟and French dressing anything else meh

Omg...Peggy's dress looks horrible on her.

That voice, that guy is always announcing. So robotic, and script read. So annoying and total no personality.

I want that Trump as a president.

The German Shepherd legs are supposed to be like that 🤦🏻‍♀️ that the true German Shepherd body

The motionless horn lately separate because insect microregionally risk following a smart babies. fragile, ahead bomb

The GSD doesn’t have any problem moving...

German Shepard

Pemberton Welsh Corgi,

briardbouvier des flandresSpanish water dog

lol trump

Trump remarks were in poor taste. This a dog show, for goodness sake.

Make dogs great again, mate! Get it? *Australian* Shepherd?... *crickets*

If we can’t keep politics out of religion, we can’t keep it out of any other aspect of American life. It’s a lost cause.

I think they were just trying to stave off all the Tweets they thought they were going to get from Trump foes.

It would be like an elephant in the room if they had NOT clarified it for the audience.

Thought it was no different than any other time when they've clarified how the dog got its name. Not a big deal, unless you make it a big deal.
