Westminster Dog Show 2010: God Loves A Terrier

Congratulations, Sadie the Scottish Terrier! You won the 2010 Westminster Dog Show, an event that seems like it should probably be incredibly stressful for a dog but you seem to be a remarkably even-tempered little pup. So go you with your bright shiny black coat and gleaming white teeth. You’re like the terrier version of Megan Fox.

But really, who doesn’t love a terrier? They are what PetSugar calls “the most winningest group of all” in the (check out the ridiculous terrier dominance here), and as Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara pointed out in “Best In Show,” God loves them. Their terrier won, of course. But in keeping with the Canada-love of this month’s Vancouver Winter Olympics, let’s not forget the original ode to terrier-love: The Terrier Song, sung with gusto by Bruce McCulloch. Anyhow. It’s a day to celebrate terriers, so let’s do it!

But – we can’t forget the Weimaraners. Those are gorgeous dogs, too. And not nearly as high-strung as in Best in Show. How else would they have sat so patiently for photos like this?
