Local dogs compete at Westminster

Two dogs from the area competed in the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in New York, but neither advanced after the first day’s competition.

The 134th Annual Dog Show permits entry of only 2,500 dogs. The competition started the morning of Monday, Feb. 15 and continues into the evening of Tuesday. Feb. 16.

Entries include:

A Papillon shown by Jessica Ray Isenbarger of Kettering.

A Shetland Sheepdog shown by Jessica Starbuck of Xenia.

A Belgian Sheepdog shown by Sherri Wilmoth of Beavercreek was qualified to enter, but Wilmoth said it was too cold to fly her dog, Ch. Sarron Casino Royale to the show this weekend.

‘We didn’t make the show this year,’ Wilmoth said. ‘I’ll be watching tonight from Beavercreek.’

Neither the Papillon, which was entered in the toy category, nor the sheepdog entered in the herding dog class advanced out of their breed competition.

Dogs selected as best in their breed go on to compete in best of class. One of those dogs is then named Best of Show.
