We spent some time this week getting to know the best and absolute worst dogs from the 2016 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, and our main takeaway? Any dog can claim they are a very good dog, yes indeed you are, yes yes, so very good—but the dogs aren't the ones spending thousands of dollars and thousands of hours of their lives grooming, feeding, housing, pampering, and picking up the poop of their best friends.
So we asked the many owners, handlers, groomers, and dog lovers who were in attendance to tell us why they love the event so much, how they got into dog showing, and why they devote so much of their lives to adorably sociopathic creatures who would fertilize every inch of your home without a second thought. Watch the video above, and hear it in their own words.
And if all this dog content has you hankering for your own personal pizza crust incinerator, there are over 130,000 adoptable dogs available in the NYC area, and they are all very good dogs yes they are, what good dogs, yes indeed.
