The 148th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show did not disappoint! I truly enjoyed the Billie Jean King Tennis Center as the Westminster venue. Every Westminster is special, and every win–whether a breed win, a group placement, or more–is a cherished memory. This year, one of the icons of the sport, Kaz Hosaka, chose his […]

#TriviaTuesday – Can You Guess This Dog Breed?
What breed of dog am I? I am a breed in the Toy group; direct translation is “lion dog.” I am a sturdy, lively, alert toy dog with long flowing double coat.

The March Madness Cluster Delivers Again!
Around here, the Edison shows have come to symbolize the kickoff of that non-stop show calendar that doesn’t ease up until winter.

In 1960, my parents (Jim and Lee Canalizo) were a young married couple with three small kids. After the loss of an infant brother, Lee wanted a dog in the home. She was attracted to the Afghan Hound after seeing Ch. Shirkhan of Grandeur go Best In Show at the 1957 Westminster Dog Show.

In Memory of Tootie Longo
The sport of purebred dogs is mourning the loss of one of the great ones. Tootie Longo, more affectionately known as “A legend in black” by those in the fancy, passed away Saturday night, May 18th after a valiant battle with cancer.
