Living Vicariously Through Others

I took Carter to a make-up class training class tonight, which ended up being Novice Obedience.

There was a beautiful and HUGE Newfie bitch in there. After convincing Carter that it was a canine and not a bear, I was talking with the owner who said the Newfie finished her grand championship this past weekend. To which I replied,

“Are you going to The Garden?” (which means Westminster, next week)

and she says....

“No, because I can’t top last year. She (the Newfie) won best of opposite there.”

At that point shows me this incredibly huge gold medallion that’s hanging around her (the owner's) neck that says Westminster Kennel Club – and so forth.

I just looked at her and said,

“Can I touch it?”

So I basically felt up some lady’s Westminster necklace in dog training class tonight.
