00:00Prancing into the arena and pampered to perfection, this is the Wimbledon of the canine world.
00:09Every breed has a standard, so they're looking for that dog that conforms to the standard for every breed.
00:16But we think he's special.
00:19From gundogs.
00:21As long as I've got food with me, she's basically on board with whatever.
00:25To guard dogs.
00:27This is our trusty slobberer, and we just keep him nice and canine.
00:32Even working dogs had their day.
00:34He's only had a couple of shows, but when he wins his ribbons, he loves to run around with them.
00:38Pooches in all shapes and sizes were vying for a prize.
00:42About once a week, four to five hours from start to finish.
00:46No one for their wrinkles, much like their owners.
00:49It wasn't all about looks.
00:51In rescue Labrador Gandalf won the division for best hero dog.
00:55A career highlight for the eight and a half year old, due to retire at the end of the year.
01:00He will have a really good time and enjoy being a pet and lie on a lounge that isn't burnt.
01:06But only one hound could trot away with the ultimate prize.
01:10Anton the Poodle was crowned the best dog in show.
01:13This is his third year coming in.
01:15He's only three, just over three years old, and he's won the breed every year.
01:18But this is just, yes, very special.
01:21From rise to sweet treats, there's plenty on offer at the show.
01:25But it's the dog competition that keeps bringing back the crowds year after year.
01:31It's not meant to be work, it's not meant to be hard work, it's just meant to be fun.
01:34And that's what it's all about.
