I know, just kidding. We call it exaggerating for effect in our house. So much hair!

Had he not been walking forward I might not have even known where to look!

I do have to agree with you about how dark his little face is, though.

I wasn't able to watch on TV because my DVR stopped recording when they switched channels (I hate that) so I spent quite a bit of time last night watching the Yorkie judging (and a few other breeds) plus the toy group on my computer. Jackpot was amazing and it's a shame he didn't even get pulled!!! He caught my eye in the breed judging and he showed very well in group. When the judge made his little sound at the end of the down and back Jackpot was one of the few who actually focused on him instead of their handler.
With that said, my husband often says that Yorkies just don't get the recognition they deserve in group. He says if their name doesn't start with the letter P they don't place very often in the larger dog shows. He says the following breeds are picked consistently and I've started to agree. How often do you see the Peke, Poodle (toy), Pom, & Pug place? I thought the Chinese Crested was a great dog too.

I noticed in Memphis that even as a puppy Jackpot made good eye contact with the judge...soooo, I really thought he was one that stood a chance...he likes to show and always seems to look the judge in the eye..excellent conformation, groomed perfectly, in excellent coat and color..animated and showy....what more do they want?? I do not think a Yorkie can win if he couldn't get a placing...
