Excellent explanation, Anne! I went to watch the Berners show at Westminster on
Monday, watched Michelle win the Newf class and enjoyed watching the other breeds in
the various rings. I was amazed at how little I knew about certain breed standards
and normally could not pick the winners out
Congrats to all the winners at Westminster this year!!!

I'm so excited to be attending Westminster this year. I've been wanting to go for
years but something has always come up.
We are going for the day on Monday, but will be home at night on my own couch to watch

Alex,
Actually, Westminster is a terrific place to meet and talk to breeders, it's one of
the few remaining benched shows on the entire East Coast! Philadelphia is another, and

Hi Alex,

you will see some lovely Bernese BUT...This is a very important show for

To that end, we're going to the Westminster AKC show in NYC next week -
both to enjoy seeing the creme de la creme of show Berners (along with some
of the less fortunate, non-Bernese breeds!)and to hopefully meet just the
right breeder for us.
