Originally Posted By LoyalOrderWaterBuffa ~~~~~millions times more humane than the National Dog Show~~~~ those dogs at shows are treated like royalty. They get the best fooD, the best grooming, the top vets checking them out, the best sleeping arrangements and so much human attention with rubdowns, massages and pampering. i don't know why you would say that to us. aside from owners loving their pets they know that there can be good money and prestiGe with ribbons and awards so maltreatment should not ever happen.
