Dog show or dogs showing off?

Now there is a question... You see a few days ago my human and I went to a dog show in Scottsdale. My human had always wanted to see a real dog show. She kind of knew what to expect, I was a little disappointed. You see everyone always tells me how beautiful I am. I'm wonderful, I'm gorgeous, and I'm the best dog ever. Ok so maybe I let all the endless adoration go to my head once in awhile.

Well now that I have been face to face with what humans consider to be the ideal golden retriever I see that I look nothing like them. They were all gorgeous but I will tell you that the long and wavy feathering on my tail was far more lovely than the poofs on the show dogs tails and my human agrees with me on this one and apparently so did some of the show dogs as a few of them dragged their handler over to check out my stellar back end. Ok so maybe I was flaunting it a bit but you couldn't blame me, the place was packed with studs and I do like it when the boys want to sniff me.

My human and I cruised around checking out all the various types of dogs in their show rings. Then over to check out all the doggie goodies at the vendors, there were no freebies so we didn't stay in that area long, then back to show rings. Why do they call them show rings anyways; they were rectangular in shape. Humans, go figure.

Due to the lack of shade and ever increasing temperature we didn't stay more than a few hours. You wouldn't think it would be this hot already but it is.

Here are a few of the pics my human took at the show. I hope you enjoy them!
