 May we have the herding group in the ring please. And of course these breeds were all meant to work really closely with man and they still want to be close to their families and they're very trainable. And this is the group, the herding group that has, you know we talk about the terrier group with the most best in show wins. They have the fewest of the seven groups but it was just a couple of years ago when rumor was victorious for best in show. Right, but a lot of these breeds, many of these breeds were in the working group and then the working group became so large that it was broken up and the herding dogs started their own group. Right, so this group doesn't have as long a history here as the other groups do. They got to catch up a bit. That's right. When you look at these dogs and their function you think herding but there's actually a couple of different types of jobs. You know there's some that are actually herding, corraling the livestock and others that are drovers. They push the livestock. Absolutely, and then of course the other thing to consider is the coat. The coat is usually based on what terrain they were in and what temperature, what climate. Our judge tonight, Peggy Bysel McElway. We talked to her about switching to the herding dogs this year. Previously she judged terriers here. Peggy judged that terrier group as you mentioned and that year the terrier, the bull terrier, Rufus went best in show. So maybe the herding dog will have the same magic from her. We have 31 dogs in this group and here's Michael. Originally bred to herd cattle in the rugged Australian outback, the Australian cattle dog is tough, courageous, intelligent and possesses great stamina. Their loyalty, devotion to duty and protective instincts make them self-appointed guardians of family and property. Adult coats are flat-lying, whether resistant and can either be red or blue. This is Australian cattle dog, number 11. So Wyatt is retiring today after winning the breed, which is a nice way to end your career winning Best of Breed at Westminster. Of course he's also very active in other sports, which many of these dogs are, whether it's canine good citizen or herding titles. There are lots of different ways to keep your dog stimulated and keep them active even if they're not going to be showing anymore. I know his owner, Laurie Yeomans, from back in Golden Retrievers, which is my family's original breed, but not unusual for people to move from one breed to another. The Australian Shepherd was actually developed in the western United States, where this versatile and intelligent breed has been valued by ranchers for decades as an exceptional herder. An eminently trainable dog, their athleticism and skill led them to succeed in a wide range of endeavors, from search and rescue to obedience, agility and fly ball events. This is Australian Shepherd, number 17. Healthy looking dog. This dog's name is Trump. Now before you tweet, named after the Trump card in the game bridge. All right, Don, hold off there. Okay. Nice save. Yes, we segue to popularity in the western culture with horse riding here after World War II and rodeos often seen on TV. This is a great all-purpose dog. They can do so many different things. They're great in agility, of course, hurting, but there are many other things that this breed can do because of their versatility. This is Trump, as you said. Trump's happy to be here. The bearded collie or beardy is an old Scottish breed that achieved recognition in the United States in 1977. He was happy to work sheep, play with children, jump through hoops or do anything with her people. Beardies are independent thinkers, so early fun and imaginative training is the key. This is bearded collie, number 19. Of course, this is my original breed that I grew up showing. My parents, Fred, love watching the bearding. This particular beardy, Matrice has so many other titles. I can't even read them off. There's way too much. This dog's also an FCI international champion, Puerto Rican champion, Pan American, Canadian. This dog gets around. Some frequent flyer miles. Beardies are such a fun-loving breed. Of course, they have that double coat. Good. Thank you. Right around me. Handle the Scottish Highlands. But, of course, they need training. Like any dog, you need to start early, socializing and training them. The Boceron is an old and distinct French breed bred and selected for their aptitude to herd and guard large flocks of sheep. The ideal Boceron is a well-balanced, solid dog of good height and well-muscled without heaviness or coarseness. A formidable dog, he commands respect wherever he goes. This is Boceron, number 11. This is Matrice. Sorry about that, though. We actually had some information mixed up there. The Boceron is the dog from all the different countries. Oh, there we go. There's a lot of dogs that we're trying to sort through them carefully. Of course, the beardy was Wildwood Kinky. I hear me roar. So, shown by Lisa Betta. Sorry about that. The Boceron is nine years old, and here, the Boceron, this is Matrice. This breed works up close to its livestock. Thank you, Redaral. So, you see that more compact upright structure. We would accentuate its ability to work in that way. The Belgian Malinois is one of three similar Belgian herding dogs recognized in this country. The Malinois is distinguished from the other Belgians by a short coat ranging in color from fawn to mahogany. A proud, agile, strong dog, full of life, it excels at police work, search and rescue, and performance competition. This is Belgian Malinois, number 22. You know, Don, we saw that tail going back and forth previously in the shot. We always took that as the dog is happy. Dog is happy. So, here, a little more focus, maybe. There you go. Yeah. We always love to see that. The dog's tail wagging is a great sign, and you see that a lot here. And now, of course, these are show dogs, but the Malinois is used often with police work, different guard work. And actually, even Brian Lilly, our director, has a Malinois at home. And he's got a big estate in Texas in it. Roll him a while. Got all that land. The Belgian Cheap Dog with its distinctive long black coat was originally bred as a versatile working farm and family dog. Hurting the flock and guarding the home. Today, they are active and successful in many events, such as hurting, obedience, tracking, and agility trials. This is Belgian Cheap Dog, number 14. So, Duke, when you see number one male Belgian Cheap Dog, right? So, there's analytics. There's shows you appear. And how do you get that ranking? It's typically by the number of dogs that you've defeated. Most of the ranking systems are based on that. So, that number of dogs shows, but the dogs you've gone up against in each show. That's correct. And so, as you see, it's the number one male. That means the number one female is out there. Yes. And don't get them mixed up. Do they want to hang out? I mean, just think what a dynamic couple they make. Thank you. And right around. Belgian Cheap Dog used in World War I as message carriers. Excuse me. Also, ambulance dogs. And they even helped pull heavy equipment. Usually, sometimes there's some white on the chest, right? A little bit of white on the solid black. Just a little bit. The Belgian Travurene is the third of the Belgian Breeze with a long-haired coat color other than black. Bread to herd, as well as guard, these dogs excel at search and rescue dogs and in all other areas of competition. The breed's versatility and graceful eye-catching appearance are prized by their owners. This is Belgian Travurene, number eight. This is Jagger. I met him backstage with Josh Groban, who stopped by earlier. He got to meet Jagger. Imported from France? He does not speak French. I asked already. These Belgian Breeze are very similar. The Malinois, the Cheap Dog and the Travurene, very similar construction and shape. It's really the code for making the difference. And that black tipping on the fawn color is a breed characteristic. Yeah, that's it. Right around. Cool look. Many Terps have titles on both ends of their name. They're very versatile and very good at other dog sports. The Bergamasco is an ancient alpine herding and guarding breed. This medium to large muscular and heavy bone dog has an abundant of coat that forms flocks, allowing them to blend in with the sheep and provide insulation from the climate and protection from predators. Bergamasco are intelligent, loyal, eager to please making them wonderful family companions. This is Bergamasco, number 10. Good. Thank you. Straight down and back. Now, Don, would you describe that as a dog hair, goat hair, kind of a wool combination of a coat? Yeah, it's basically you've got multiple textures that are intertwining and causing those cords. Cords like looks. Of course, that's to protect the dog. Yes. Whether from an attack of a predator or from the elements. You know, going back to functionality. This dog's working in the mountainous region, the Alps, you know, herding sheep. That heavier body, heavier bone than say when we looked at the Belgian breeds, right? A little bit lighter build. The Berger-Picard is thought to be the oldest of the French herding breeds. The Berger-Picard is a medium sized dog with a rustic, tousled appearance, naturally erect ears and maybe fawn or brindle in coloration. People oriented and loyal. The Berger-Picard makes a good family pet if properly socialized. This is Berger-Picard number 18. Of course, they have that rough weather proof coat. You can see it looks, looks a rugged rustic kind of look. And that light footed easy way of going. They should be able to, you know, do that movement all day long while they're working the field with their livestock. That's right. Most of the herding breeds are supposed to have a very. Good. Thank you. They should barely be taking their foot off the ground. It should look like they're floating across the ground effortlessly. Back in last year, 2018, best of the herding group title went to Slick, border collie from Pennsylvania. We mentioned back then Slick had the best 31 other dogs to be on the show ring and this border collie carrying the herding group title. After rumor won best in show the year before in 2017, the German Shepherd, but Slick is back for another run. A product of Scotland and England, the border collie is the premier herding dog. Their ability to manipulate sheep is legendary as is their prowess and obedience and agility. Although easily trained, they are so highly motivated to work that they are perfect for the farm, but not apartment dwelling unless provided with plenty of outside activity. This is border collie, number 14. So, of course, Slick won the group last year, but also important, he's the winningest border collie in history. Wow. And that's something that, you know, who doesn't want that title? Exactly. Exactly. Jamie Clute's handling. No, I heard, didn't Jamie just have knee surgery? That's true, but of course nothing would keep him away from this. You may see him moving a little slower, but the dog looks great. Well, the adrenaline will kick in, yeah. That's right. That's right. And, you know, Slick has been out. He's done a lot of winning. Maybe this will be his last show. The Bouvier de Flandre was developed in the 19th century as a farm dog in the northern hills of France and Belgium. He has been known throughout history as the milk cart dog. His strength and agility coupled with his intelligence and supreme disposition make him a strong worker and a fine companion. This is Bouvier de Flandre, number seven. And would you show me his fight, please? Good. Straight down the back. Lane Pequette showing Bobby Lars, baby Lars. Keesh Bouvier's, Elaine's very well known. That's right. Another massive reader. Exactly. Our owner, the owner's tell us that baby Lars likes to give high fives. That would be like a, like a high 20. Jumping a baby, we almost saw the move there. We make a good point that high 20 because that's a lot of dog under that hair. Exactly. A lane's not a big woman, you know, so you got to train these dogs early, make sure that they're, they know who's in charge. The Briard is an ancient breed of France serving as a sheep herder, guardian and all around farm dog. Vigorous, alert and self-confident, they have the strength and power to do the job for which they are bred. Distinguishing characteristics include a long wavy coat, do claws on his rear legs and a crook at the end of the tail. This is Briard, number 14. Great. Straight down the back. And Gibbs is named after the TV character Leroy Jethro Gibbs from NCIS. Another French herding breed. Actually related to the bolsteron we saw earlier, you'll find out a lot in breed histories where there's connections from one breed to another. That's right, they're both a big solid dog. Yes. Briard's kind of regard children as part of their flock, protective family dog. That's right. You gotta watch out, they'll keep them all together. That's a good thing. That's a good thing, absolutely. Named for the ancient land of Canaan, its origin dating back to biblical times, the Canaan dog is Israel's only native dog. A herding and sentry dog for the ancient Hebrews, the breed lived as a feral dog for over 2,000 years in the desert, where it survived independently until it was redomesticated in 1935. This is Canaan dog, number six. Not too fast. Like most the herding breeds, all the herding breeds, these dogs need to be able to work all day long, so having that effortless gait that doesn't require a lot of energy is really important. You get that moderate construction, you get the angles on the shoulders and the hindquarters, very moderate angles, makes for a very steady, efficient gait, that head and ear, tail breed characteristics. You heard the handler making the sounds, the judge wants to see the ears up, see the expression of the dog, so that's the reason for that, the squeaky sound. In Welsh, corgi means dwarf dog. The cardigan is the corgi with the tail and is one of the oldest breeds in the British Isle dating to 1200 BC. He was developed as an all-purpose farm worker and companion. His willingness and trainability allows him to excel in performance events. This is cardigan Welsh corgi, number 15. Great. Straight down and back. When they talk about this being the corgi with the tail, there are actually a lot more differences between the two breeds. Heads are different, the fronts are different, the ears shape, these are rounder ears with Pembroke's more pointy, you see heavier bone. And the elongated shape, like purpose to nip at cattle's heels or drive cattle. Stay low to the ground, keep them safe. Good, thank you. Right around. Very clever, smart breed. They're very smart. There were a few of them in Agility Championship on Saturday. Collies originated in Scotland where they are bred to gather, to move and protect sheep. They were selected for herding because they are gentle, alert and intelligent. The breed comes in two varieties, the rough coat and the smooth coat. One standard is used for both varieties. This is Rough Collie, number 28. Collie, you think? And would you show me her bite, please? America's favorite lassie. Straight down and back. Extremely intelligent. President Benjamin Harrison owned a collie named Dash. This is Marilyn, shown by Brian Livingston, who has done a lot of winning. She's the number one Rough Collie in the country. Beautiful headed, and that's really important, this breed. It's that kind of wedge shaped, blonde, all of a piece. Thank you, and right around. See how the ears, just the tips fold over? It's beautiful, beautiful headpiece. It's a blue-murl, of course. And now for the second variety of collies, the smooth. While the rough coated variety was developed for the colder northern climes of Scotland, the smooth collie was used primarily as a cattle driver in the south of England. This is Smooth Collie, number 24. This is Harrison. Of course, again, you can like the rough collie, but smooth coated. It's the same standard. Same standard. So the headpiece. And why do they separate? Why not leave them grouped together? A lot of breeds have varieties, like Docsons, right? Long hair, wire hair, smooth. Same thing here, just the difference in coat. But all the same requirements as far as head and structure. Part of it would be location, where they're working, and type of whether they're doing the actual herding or the drover. Smooth Collie needs companionship, does well in the country or the city. It's a beautiful moving dog. The Antley Booker Mountain Dog is the smallest of the four Swiss Senhun breeds. Originally from the Antley Book Valley of Switzerland, the breed is prized as a herding and all-around utility dog. These distinct smooth coated tricolor dogs are an intelligent, high-energy breed. Best for people with an active lifestyle. This is Antley Booker Mountain Dog, number eight. So Neo, one is national specialty, and you hear us talk about a lot of these top dogs have, but that win is really special for a breeder because you're being judged generally by another breeder. Absolutely. And you're against the dogs from all around the country and it's a special event. It's a huge event to win your national. That's where you showcase as a breeder. Exactly. This is the smallest of the Swiss breeds. We're going to see some in the working group. The Finnish Lapun is a reindeer herding dog from the north of the Arctic Circle. Their double coat is waterproof and serves them well in the coldest climates. For years they've been very popular in Scandinavia as a family pet. Also excel in obedience, agility, and the show ring. This is Finnish Lapun, number eight. Great. You're going to go straight down the back, not too fast. Dusky's being handled by a junior handler who's competing this year in juniors at Westminster, which is something Don and I have done many moons ago. Many moons ago. Sierra Carlin, yeah, and obviously the experience, nervous moments, anxious moments. Yeah, sir, I actually did the prelims today. I'll be doing them again tomorrow, and our juniors are so talented. They had to win all year to get here. She's posed. She's fine. She's poised. She's not rattled being in the garden. The German Shepherd dog is a highly intelligent, exceptional family dog who enjoys the endeavors of its owners. Originally bred as a sheep herding and protection dog in Germany. It is competitive in herding, obedience, agility, tracking, and successful both as a service dog and a policeman's best friend and protector. This is German Shepherd dog number 11. Always brings a cheer. The German Shepherd uses in search and rescue during the days following 9-11. This is Kent Boyles. You'll recognize him. He was rumors handler. And this is Tony, which is rumors half-brother. Kent is a breeder owner handler. And he was AKC's breeder of the year this year with his partner Liz. And, you know, we can't say enough, Liz Oster, excuse me. We can't say enough about the breeders in the sport. It takes a lot of work and dedication to get two dogs into the group. Now, watch him go. This is the hallmark of this breed, that reconnaissance trot. At some point, all four feet are off the ground. The Icelandic sheepdog arrived in Iceland in long boats with the first Viking settlers. A hardy and agile Nordic herding spits, it has a thick, weather-proof coat. Confidence and lively bearing are typical for this gentle, intelligent, happy dog. Highly alert, it will give visitors an enthusiastic and cheerful welcome. This is Icelandic sheepdog, number 11. Stacy Threffels, showing Roy. Again, he's a top-winning dog, won the breed at the AKC National Championship this year. Passed his farm dog certified test. Great, thank you, right around. This breed, the only native dog to Iceland, has appeared on the country's postage stamps. The Miniature American Shepherd was developed in California during the 1960s. These dogs are bred for their small size, intelligence, trainability, and herding instinct. This active dog needs both exercise and training. Whether working stock, navigating an agility course, or doing therapy work, the Miniature American Shepherd will do diligence. This is Miniature American Shepherd, number 28. This breed's very popular with horses in the equestrian world. They're very smart, versatile. Of course, we have Clint Livingston showing Reno here, who is the number one Mini American in all systems. We sometimes add ranking systems in the dog show world. This is an American creation. These were bred down from the Australian Shepherd. We saw the Australian Shepherd earlier in the group. Dogs represented from all 50 states in this competition, and California providing the most, followed by the state of New York. The Norwegian Buhun was once a cherished companion of Vikings. Buhun means farm dog in Norwegian, and he is a versatile breed that herds livestock, guards property, and has been used for hunting game. He's a double-coated, squarely-built, Fitz-type dog with an intelligent, friendly expression. This is Norwegian Buhun, number 11. You may recognize the Hamlers. This is Doug Belter, who was on the Beagle that we just saw in the Hound Group. And here he has Ragnar, the number one Norwegian Buhun, top-winning male in the history of the breed. That's always a special level. That shows some consistency in his success, that he's been able to amass a number of dogs that he's defeated through the year to get that ranking. The Old English Sheepdog emerged as a distinct breed in the mid-19th century, evolving from herding stock. It's known as the bobtail, with a harsh double coat resistant to weather and brambles. He excelled as a drover, handling cattle or sheep on the way to market. This is Old English Sheepdog, number 12. And let's see her bite, please. Right, straight down the back. Nice and easy, not too fast. What a roar for Elsa here at the garden. This breed familiar pop culture classics, the Shaggy DA, the Brady Family Pet, Archie Comics, and then Max in the Disney classic, The Little Mermaid. This is Elsa, who's been the number one dog in the country, shown by Heather Johnson. And her family, of course, has been in Sheepdogs and her husband's family. She's been in Sheepdogs many generations. If you noticed when Peggy was going over, she really got her hands in there to examine the dog, feeling the broad head, big ribbed body, short back, heavy bone. But you got to get your hands in there to feel that as a judge. Absolutely. To feel that bear-like shape. And Heather may start her out slow, so that... There we go. And that just speeds up a little bit. A characteristic role for the breed. The more prevalent of the Corgi breeds, the Pembroke Welsh Corgi was developed in Wales as a livestock and family dog and dates to at least the 10th century. The Pembroke is recognizable by their foxy face, sturdy build in a moderately long, low shape. Physical agility and affectionate temperament are paramount characteristics of the Pembroke. This is Pembroke Welsh Corgi, number 17. Like a lot of herding breeds, this breed, if you don't give it a job, it'll come up with its own job. So it's important to keep them busy. They'll hurt anything. They'll definitely... They're referred to as healers, and if you've ever lived with one, you'll know what that means. And this is Covey. It's a cool name. I like Covey. Chris, who's the most famous Pembroke fan here in the world? That's right around. I don't know. Should I know that? Queen Elizabeth. Queen Elizabeth? Always got one around. Okay. I did another one. First documented in the 13th century, the Polish lowland sheepdog is a herding dog of considerable ability. The double coat is long, dense and shaggy. Being strong-willed, they do best with a master that is willing to train and socialize them. This is Polish lowland sheepdog, number 14. Great. You can go straight down and back. Not too fast. You notice some of the dogs go up on this platform, Chris, and the reason for that is so the judge doesn't have to bend over them as far. They're not small enough to be on the table, so they have the ramp, it's called, and the dogs are elevated so the judge can examine them. And this is Vera, national specialty winner in 2018. If you don't want to get that Polish lowland sheepdog mouthful out, you can just call them a pawn. That's what we refer to them at the shows. Ryan Wolff's handling. The pulley is an ancient breed of hungry introduced by the migration of the Magyars over a thousand years ago. He has the same corded coat as seen on the Commodore. Adept at handling large herds and flocks, the pulley is keenly intelligent and deeply devoted to its owners. This is pulley number 10. This is another herding breed with the coat that's obviously made to protect it. The shepherds are known to say it's not a dog. It's a pulley. There is a difference. There is. They're very light-footed. Let's watch this. Yeah, watch them go. Let's watch them go. Yeah, Parker. Light-footed breed. You know, they would work with their owner for months at a time in isolation. So they're very close to their owners and definitely want to work with them and be a little suspicious of others as they approach. Until the owner says it's okay. Oh, Parker's ready. We finally have somebody speaking up here for the Joe Carpon audio. I had to bring the pot up a little bit. Typical way of going. An ancient Hungarian herding breed, the Pumi was developed by shepherds who developed a dog that would herd cattle, sheep, and pigs on small farms in western Hungary. This medium-sized, spirited dog with wavy and curly hair is intelligent, willing to work, and a quick learner. The breed is characterized by its square outline, circular tail, semi-erect ears, and a whimsical expression. This is Pumi, number 15. So in the herding group, you will see a lot of square dogs. This is another one. They're either square, or they're going to be rectangular in size. I mean, everyone thinks it's a cute little cuddly, but they're a serious working dog. Absolutely. And again, the structure connects to the type of work they do. Right? Look at this structure compared to the corgi we just saw. Two totally different jobs herding. Good. Thank you. Right around. Always... I need to work with cattle or pigs or sheep. Yeah. I love that they use the word whimsical and describe it as dogs. I think that captures it perfectly. Hungary. But a tough herder. Yeah, absolutely. Very tough herder. This is Perenian shepherd. He hails from the Pyrenees mounds of France. They were the traditional working companions of the larger dog, the great Pyrenees, and were bred to herd sheep and other livestock. They come in two varieties, smooth-faced and rough-faced, referring to short or shaggy hair. These shepherds excel at agility events and also make wonderful family companions. This is Perenian shepherd, number six. So the coat here, you notice, is a little unusual. This is the cadnets, the felted quartz, quartz that are the French style, shall we say. Is that color the way... That's very typical. Yeah, very typical. Okay. Kind of a blend. It's like it's racing through the wind. The breeder sells... You only need two of them to handle a flock of a thousand sheep. That is incredible. That is for the size. That's a working dog. The Shetland sheepdog originated in the Shetland Islands, developing there and on the British mainland is a popular affectionate companion and farm dog. His color may be sable, ranging from light golden brown to dark mahogany, black or blue-murl. The Sheltie's intense desire to please his owner makes him an outstanding worker in obedience and agility trials. This is Shetland sheepdog, number eight. Good. Good. Straight down back. It's a beautiful dog. Way too soon to go down and back. Conrad, number one Sheltie right now. Checking the bite. There we go. Smile from Conrad. Usually a proud favorite. Very spectacular way of moving. That mane. Almost gliding. They look like a miniature collie, but there are a lot of features that are different between the two breeds. Thank you. Right around. Beautiful outline. Yeah. Smart, clever dogs. He's ready to go. He knows what to do. There he goes. I know what to do. Spanish water dog is a rustic, medium-sized, curly-coated, all-purpose farm dog used to herd sheep and goats and cattle. The breed is devoted to its people and happiest when it is in that function to perform. Because of its intelligence, trainability, and athleticism, this breed excels in all dog sports. This is Spanish water dog, number seven. Now you're going to ask me why is a herding dog have water in its name? That's the first question, but that's because they were multi-purpose. They were waterfowl retrievers. Yeah. They did both jobs. Excellent watch dogs by today's standards. A single coat. It's always curly, wooly texture. The breed needs a lot of exercise. Showing either natural or what those cords as you've seen in a few of the other breeds. Thank you. Right around. We saw the camera. He said, what is that? Something's moving. Alert. Yeah. The Swedish Valhund is a very old spistite breed dating from the days of the Vikings. Small, powerful, and fearless, they have been kept for centuries as an all-purpose farm dog for herding cattle, rodent control, and alerting the farmer to visitors. The double coat and characteristic harness markings are essential features of this breed. The tail may be long, stubbed, or bob. This is Swedish Valhund, number eight. This is Aria, and we expect her to behave. She has a CD, rally title, trick dog title. She does it all. Another spitz type dog. We've seen that as a recurring theme for many of our breeds. Thank you. Right around. Michael had mentioned the Viking historical tie-in with this particular breed. Our judge, Peggy Beisel McElway, as she said, born and bred in Green Bay in the womb of Packer, a die-hard Packer fan. That's true. And her grandfather was the very first Andrew Turnbull, the very first president of the Green Bay Packers. Of course, the NFL's only publicly-owned team. Current president is Mark Murphy. So she's... The border collie in the Bouvier, please. He's making the roster good. Rock the collie. Slick is out. Bouvier, Maryland. What collies are in? Who won? Tony. Oh, gosh. Who won? Elsa, of course. Shelty. Got the hurry-up office. Thank you, everyone. Thank you. She was clearly sorting in her mind as she was going. That's, you know, one process as a judge kind of keeping track of what you're like. Got it whittled down. One at a time, nice and easy, not too fast. From 31 dogs to this. Her comment about not too fast is really important. It's not how fast they go. It's how well they go, how efficiently and how they represent the way their breed should move. All right, so you guys have been judges here. Help us out. This is a really good look at the group. Oh, there's the smooth collie. I'm really excited. I'm very impressed by it. Full collies are in there. That's awesome. Sherman Shepherd. Tony, of course. Spectacular. Kent's just along for the ride, isn't he? A flying trot. Boo, Hunt. The old English. Gonna have to get this in half here. Shelty's not giving up easily. Look at him go. That's beautiful. Crowd loving it. Conrad. Got a nice dogs out there. Just gonna take the last look. Looking at heads. Head, expression, ear set. And Elsa. Take them around, please. As I was saying earlier, Elaine is a master breeder. Bouvier is in pain off here. That's right. That's right. The Bouvier is gonna be won. Well done. Borders two, Shepherd three and Old English four. Thank you very much. Baby Lars. That's champion Keisha's major league. Wins the hurting group. Well done. And we're waiting for the high five. I mean, that's. I love this camaraderie though. In every single group who watched everybody coming up to hug and kiss and congratulate everyone. Every one of them would have liked to have won. But they're just as happy for the one who did. Exactly. That's right. I mean, winning the breed is the win. Yes, absolutely. This is icing on the cake. And there is the fourth and final group of this night. The hurting group winner. And to carrot in the arena. Well, congratulations to you. The Bouvier has won the hurting group. You beat out some very stiff competition. Some very well regarded dogs tonight. So how does this victory feel doing that? It feels wonderful. And breeding this breed for a long time and being able to win the group at the Westminster dog show is great. Well, certainly it is a dog that is less common to people. So what do we need to know about a Bouvier if somebody at home was thinking of getting one for their family? They're a great family dog. And they're like kind of a non shedding breed. And they're wonderful companions. Wonderful companions and they are winners. Congratulations. Of course, we will see you tomorrow night. Jenny, back to you.
