Back in 2004, I was so proud when one of BooMan’s distant cousins won the Westminster Dog Show. The newf was named Josh, and he was related to BooMan on both sides of his family: the Pouch Coves and the Darbydales. Yesterday, another Pouch Cove/Darbydale newf won best in breed and will be competing for Best in Working Group and, hopefully, Best in Show tonight. Go newfs!!
