Westminster Dog Show 2015 Day 1: Swagger Is Named Best In Herding Group

The 2015 Westminster Dog Show kicked off its first day of proceedings on Monday, awarding trophies for four Best Of Groups – including fan favorite Bugaboo, aka Swagger, who won in the Herding group.

The Westminster Dog Show: Groups

The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, a two-day event, hosted its first round of competitions Monday, with judging for the Hound, Toy, Non-Sporting and Herding Groups taking place in New York’s Madison Square Garden.

Best Non-Sporting Group winner, ‘Dawin Hearts on Fire’ is a Standard Poodle. The dog was born on Valentine’s day in 2011, and is owned by Linda C Campbell.

And 15-inch Beagle, ‘Lookin For Trouble,’ was named victorious in the Hound Group. Lookin For Trouble was born in 2011 and is owned by Eddie Dziuk, Lori Crandlemire and Kaitlyn Crandlemire.

The two most-buzzed about dogs who won prizes on Monday are Bugaboo, aka Swagger, the Old English Sheepdog named best in the Herding Group and Toy Group winner, a Shih Tzu named Rocket Power. Swagger, owned by Ron Scott, Debbie Burke, and Colton and Heather Johnson, was born on May 18th, 2011, and is known for his giant puff of hair. Swagger was a favorite early on in the competition, and last year won second place of all breeds.

On Tuesday, the Westminster Dog Show continues with Group results for Sporting, Working and Terrier Groups. Also on Tuesday, the Westminster Kennel Club will name one dog Best in Show.
