The Portuguese Water Dog, GCH CH Claircreek Impression De Matisse, became the second winningest dog of all time, taking his 217th career BIS at Friday’s Greater Muskegon Kennel Club show in Kalamazoo MI. The win eclipses the mark set by the Wire Fox Terrier, CH Registry’s Lonesome Dove, two decades ago.

Matisse is this year’s Number One Dog All Breeds with 122 BIS and 159 Working Groups in 2014.
