| westminister dog show question Hi! I checked into going to NY in feb for the big show but the dates for the specialty show was friday and sat looked like and then the Westminister show was Feb 9 and 10 so..... that was ALOT of time spent in NY in a very expensive hotel Pennsylvania or New Yorker. My question is, would it be better to ONLY go for the Specialty show , is it worth it , or perhaps just go to a more local show ( I found one on that Onfrio site). I have never been to any show at all . My husband said he would take me but not for five days, maybe just long weekend. thanks for info |

| I prefered the Specialty as I was able to alot more yorkies at different ages and to meet more people. It's smaller and less formal.

| Last year I went just for the Specialty and the toy dog show. It was a lot of fun seeing all the beautiful dogs. I did some shopping too! I think it's about $135 just to go to the Westminster show, but I'm not sure. Does anyone know?

| Its $75.00 for a two-day general admission pass. I think it is more for reserved seats. |
