Affenpinscher Named Banana Joe Wins Westminster Dog Show

Wednesday, February 13, 2013

The season is here. The time is now. When the top dogs are separated from the under dogs and only one canine wins best in show. Last night was the finale of the 137th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. And of 2,700 entrants, an affenpinscher named Banana Joe was deemed the best.

Sarah Montague has insights on the winner, the losers, and the headline makers. Montague is WNYC's resident dog expert and producer for the fiction series, "Selected Shorts."

OMG! never, ever, ever have that woman back on the radio! 1. Her voice was the most annoying one Ive heard in a decade...that accent made my spine curve. 2. Her word choices abysmal! Walnut, like a big walnut!?!?! And she's a journalist?! 3. She failed big-time at being informative. The host had to pull the story from her like a leashed dog being dragged to the vet!

Wow! What a train wreck!
