As part of the veterinary medicine coverage of the 2008 Westminster Kennel Club show, dogs and handlers that have a "veterinary story" to tell will be featured on this site. Also, information that is of general interest; such as traveling with dogs, reducing stress in our canine companions, training tips and any other interesting canine stories I find as I visit the 132nd annual Westminster Dog Show. If you have a question about the show or a story idea, please visit my contact page or this blog post ("comments" link) to send it in.
