It's that time of year...!

Our BOB winner at WKC this year is GCh. Leeason Rock My Soul, a sable and white male who will represent the breed in tonight's Herding Group.

BOS was Am/Can Ch. Shelhaven Sweet Seduction, and her sire, Am/Can Ch. Shelhaven Alaris, received an Award of Merit.

Congratulations to the connections of these three lovely dogs! Please don't forget to tune in tonight, if you can, to watch the Herding Group.

Shelhaven! Yay.. I want to have my next Sheltie from there

Like you know if she is growing out a dog who is getting too big.. lol.. I am so going to miss having another dog in the house, once roomie and GSD are gone this week

Very cool--congrats to all those involved.

What time does the coverage start tonight? I'd love to watch.

Also, just curious, when's the last time that a sheltie won the Herding Group? (Other than the movie Best In Show--anyone else notice that?!)

Coverage starts on the USA network at 7pm, then switches over to CNBC at 8:00.

I believe it was 1997, Ch. Zion's Man About Town.

Yes. Breed videos will be uploaded here.

I'm not sure when we'll see them, but they should start trickling in... you can also get a running record of the breed winners at the WKC site, as they come in.

How exciting! I will look forward to watching the video of the breed judging!

(I love the Best In Show film BTW- too funny Funnily enough I watched it 2 nights ago. Does anyone know who the starring sheltie group winner was?)

Does anyone know who the starring sheltie group winner was?

The movie was filmed in Vancouver, and the woman who appears in the film is actually a longtime Sheltie breeder from British Columbia. I don't recall specifically which dog she has in the movie, but it is one of hers (and I believe he was a well-known dog, too).
