Stumping for Stump!


A little victory for old dogs everywhere!














This 10 year old Sussex Spaniel won Best In Show out of nearly 2500 dogs.

Stump left the show ring in 2004 and later nearly died from a mysterious medical condition. What a comeback!

Never before had a dog from this breed won the show.

The previous oldest winner was an 8-year-old Papillon in 1999.

in the final line-up was a giant schnauzer that was the nation’s top show dog,

a favored Brussels griffon,

a Scottish deerhound named Tiger Woods,

a standard poodle with 94 best in show wins,

a Scottish terrier and a Puli.


Congratulations, Stump!
