Consider our Top Two Dogs All Breeds, the Portuguese Water Dog, GCH CH Claircreek’s Impression de Matisse, and the Old English Sheepdog, GCH CH Bugaboo’s Picture Perfect, who have been in a sprint for the first third of the season, leaving the rest of the field barely within sight. The PWD, Matisse, has amassed over 51,000 points leading the OES, Swagger, by 9,000 points and the rest of the field by a staggering 37,000 points.

On Saturday Matisse and Swagger both added another BIS to their 214 resumes. Matisse was in Jefferson WI where judge Eric Ringel named him his BIS and the Parti-Colored Cocker Spaniel, CH Monthaven’s The Birdcage. Rounding out his final were the 15” Beagle, GCH CH Tashtins Lookin For Trouble, the Airedale, GCH CH Epoch’s New York Minute, the Chinese Crested, GCH CH Déjàvu I Want’A Talk About Me, the Chow Chow, CH Flamingstar The Lion King, and the German Shepherd Dog, GCH CH Lockenhaus' Rumor Has It V Kenlyn.
