Cue the lights and roll out the green carpet! The best of the best canine beauties came out to strut their stuff for the 135th Westminster Dog Show at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The judging began at 8:00 AM on Monday Feb. 14. There were six rings being judged simultaneously yet from the stands, it all appeared somewhat organized and there were moments where a dog and handler would be perfectly in sync. The crowd cheered on their favorites and others politely clapped. Backstage in the benching area was a completely different world. There were echos of hundreds of blow dryers buzzing, dogs voicing their opinions, cameras, reporters, and of course hundreds of spectators all weaving through the aisles wanting to get a peek and meet the dogs. Naturally some dogs did not like the public crowds coming in but others found a way to escape to their roaming sheep filled pastures in their dreams.
