And the Winner of the 2013 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show Is…
…Banana Joe, this nine-year-old Affenpinscher from the Netherlands. In the video above, he’s winning Best in Breed (Toy); yesterday he won it all. According to the American Kennel Club, the Affenpinscher is known as “a peppy dog that has the face and impish nature of a monkey,” and was originally used for killing rats and mice. (Which would actually make for a spectacular live-competition category.) The AKC also ranks breeds by popularity, if you’re interested.
And then, because first thing in the morning is definitely the right time for it, Petfinder.
