    What did you think about the BOB Labrador at Westminster?

    GCh. Shalimar's The Animator

    I thought he was beautiful and looked great and definitely not overdone in any way.

    He is first cousins with my dog on both sides, but Linus definitely did not get as lucky in the looks department as this guy! Don't tell him I said that, though -- I think his feelings would be hurt...

    I did not get to see the group judging so I googled pics of him. I thought he looks like a very nice Labrador, very much the classic British type Lab. There was one picture I saw of his face from the front, and I have to say I did not like his overall expression. That being said, it's very hard to tell from one picture what he really looks like.

    I know from experience judging from the sidelines is very difficult if not impossible, as you aren't seeing what the judge is seeing. I do think Cyrus was a very good representative of the breed.

    Cute dog of course, he is a lab, but not my personal preference as far as looks and body type

    I think he's beautiful, and has a sire from my breeder's lines. I think he's just gorgeous as all get out.

    He's a handsome dog, for sure. I can't show my husband any photo of another lab, such as Cyrus or even Chase's or Lark's sires, without him saying he thinks Chase is more handsome. I guess he thinks Chase will be jealous and Lark doesn't count!

    “Because of the dog's joyfulness, our own is increased. It is no small gift. It is not the least reason why we should honor as well as love the dog of our own life, and the dog down the street, and all the dogs not yet born. What would the world be like without music or rivers or the green and tender grass? What would this world be like without dogs?”

    Then pick the Labrador and you can see ALL the labs in action. Including the winner.
