Westminster Kennel Club is introducing new breeds to its world-class show. They join more than 400 breeds recognized around the globe.
Putting On The Dog
The Westminster folks
Introduce some new breeds
To official dog-dom,
Recognizing their deeds.
The Pyrenean shepherd
Is getting its chance,
After guarding the sheep
Since medieval France.
And also the Bohund,
Is now having its having its day,
After working with Vikings
In ancient Norway.
It took many centuries
Since the club’s quite discreet.
Now the dogs have their place
Among the canine elite.
