That time of year again.....

We love the mom....really we do. But once a year she turns into a total woofie person. See, this thing comes on the TV and we lose her attention for 2 WHOLE NIGHTS.

What are we talking about?

The Westminster Kennel Club Show on TV. Yep - mom is devoted. Give her something to drink and snacks and she is staked out. Tim is hoping she will at least throw a blanket over her lap so he can snooze there.....

Now - before we get down to that, we want to say this: if you want a "breed" of dog, PLEASE consider a shelter or a rescue. There are LOTS of breed specific dogs in shelters that need homes. Check your local area or check Petfinder. Being in a shelter doesn't make any animal bad or broken.....they need love just like any other animals.

Heck, this handsome greyhound boy named Dasher is at the shelter where mom volunteers:
Dasher: Greyhound, Dog; Columbus, OH

That being said, we understand RESPONSIBLE breeding to protect the breed. And the other thing we love about the show on TV - that David Frey.....he makes great comments about all the dogs, tells it like it is ("this is not a beginner dog" or "you need to be smarter than this dog") and tells people to check rescues and shelters too.

Only, mom checked the basketball calendar and realized.....the second night of the show is the same night that our Michigan State Spartans play the evil Michigan Wolverines.

Let it be said, we are prone to vote for the dog show, cause at least then mom won't be yelling at the TV. But we suspect that the woofies will be DVR'd and we will get to listen to mom yell
