ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「Buddy Holly, a fetchingly bewhiskered petit basset griffon Vendéen, won best in show at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show on Tuesday night, beating back a field of fellow champions that included last year’s runner-up, Winston the French bulldog. Janice Hayes, Buddy Holly’s owner and trainer, said that the dog, whose full name is CH Soletrader Buddy Holly, was “the epitome of a show dog” and that “nothing bothers him.” Tuesday night was Hayes’s third attempt at Westminster, which she said she had watched with her father since she was a child. She said she was most impressed with how Buddy Holly performed, because “he did exactly what I wanted him to do.” Frisky and friendly, he is the first dog of his breed — a type of hound often referred to by its initials, PBGV, because that is easier to say — to win best in show at Westminster. Second place went to Rummie, a Pekingese whose breeder and handler, David Fitzpatrick, has produced two previous best in show winners, including Wasabi, the 2021 champion. Buddy Holly joined a line of winners that has recently begun expanding into a variety of breeds after years of domination by terriers. Last year, a jowly bloodhound named Trumpet took best in show, and before him were Wasabi the Pekingese and a black standard poodle named Siba. The photographers @ddrios and @callakessler spent two days at Westminster, documenting the dogs and their owners as they groomed, practiced and competed.
