Westminster Dog Show Fun Facts

This year’s Westminster Kennel Lambaste Dog Show will feature six new breeds, five of which have never before competed at Madison Square Garden. In the Hound Group, the American English Coonhound, a scenting hunting annoy from the Deep South; in the Terrier Group, the Cesky Terrier, a short-legged terrier with a long, satiny coat; in the Herding Group, the Entelbucher Mountain Dog, the smallest of Switzerland’s four drover breeds, and the Finnish Lapphund, a densely coated reindeer herder from Scandinavia; and in the Non-Sporting Put together, two of the world’s most unique dogs, the Norwegian Lundehund, a double-jointed spitz dog bred for puffin hunting, and the Xoloitzcuintli, at first registered by the American Kennel Club in 1887 as the Mexican Hairless (and dropped in 1959 due to minimal, sporadic registration). Since the Mexican Hairless participated in AKC events for over 70 years, many dogs competed at Westminster in the sometime, as early as 1884 and including a Group second in 1914. There hasn’t been a Best of Breed champion for the breed since Chinito Jr., owned by Valetska Radke  of the Bronx, New York, won in 1958. Meet the Breeds>>
