So you've watched Christopher Guest's mockumentary Best in Show over 20 times now — it might be time for the real deal. This weekend-long canine contest is one of the largest in the country, featuring over 6,000 purebreds vying for top-dog status in physical structure, condition, coat, gait, and temperament. A "no-benches" format means that the public can get up-close-and-personal with the dogs as they're pampered and prepped for competition. A marketplace of dog-centric products and seminars on pet training and care round out the proceedings, while those looking for their own furry bundle of joy can learn about various breeds' distinguishing characteristics.
