What does it take to get a dog to Westminster—and what happens when the judge starts checking under the hood? Jason Alexander and Peter Tilden welcome Kimberly Calvacca, a third-generation dog show competitor, handler, and breeder, for a funny, behind-the-scenes look at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.
Kim explains how dogs qualify, why handlers can spend a hundred days a year at shows, and what it takes to get eight dogs ready to compete. The conversation gets into breed standards, judging, grooming, show business—and whether the whole thing is a bit of a racket. Then Jason and Peter get advice for their own dogs, with pug Tango stealing the spotlight.
There’s a lot of work behind those ribbons, but Kim says the bond between handler and dog is what makes them shine: “We’re like a dance team out there.”
