150TH WESTMINSTER KENNEL CLUB DOG SHOW HELD

Goober, a 5-year-old Sussex Spaniel, defended Best of Breed at the 150th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, earning crowd applause but not Best in Show.

  • On Feb. 2, Goober, a 5-year-old Sussex Spaniel, defended his Best of Breed at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show during the 150th edition, representing the sporting class.
  • The Sussex Spaniel breed traces back to 18th-century England as a small, sturdy bird dog bred for dense brush, described by the AKC as placid and affectionate with a flowing coat.
  • Slow-Motion replays on the Jumbotron highlighted Goober's drooping face and a nose-circling tongue lick, eliciting audible 'awws' from the packed house despite not winning.
  • Tara Kennels owner Tara Darling-Lyon expects increased interest following Westminster, as Goober will travel extensively with handler, reflecting typical circuit schedules.
  • At the 150th Westminster show, West Paw brought custom purple Toppl toys for breed winners, marking its first appearance with exclusive Montana-made, nonretail keepsakes.
