Numero Uno

B-E-A-G-L-E-S!

Not, this is not the rant of a frustrated Iggles’ fan still ticked that this collection of dogs so under-achieved this year.

This is the new cheer in the dog world.

A beagle won Best in Show at the prestigious Westminster Dog Show.

None of those overly made-up, pampered pooches with the over-the-top names – and handlers – took best in show.

Instead, “Uno” now sits atop the dog kingdom.

Snoopy would be proud.

This is no small accomplishment, despite the size of the critter.

In the 100 years that Westminster, the top dog when it comes to canine competition, has been holding their contest for primping pooches, a beagle had never captured the top prize. This despite the fact that it consistently is ranked among the nation’s most popular breed of dogs.

But every dog has its day.

Today beagles rule. And Uno is leading the way. Guess we can now call him Numero Uno.
