Super Cute Photos From The Westminster Dog Show

The most important red carpet event for canines has finally arrived, and it's more glamorous (and more adorable) than ever before. The 139th Annual Westminster Dog Show kicked off on February 16 and will conclude on the evening of February 17 with the group winners announced for the sporting, working, and terrier groups, followed by the final award for Best in Show. All the fanciest breeds are in attendance, with over 2,700 dogs competing for the coveted title of Best in Show. There are also two new breeds in the running this year, which are the Coton de Tulear and the Wirehaired Vizsla. But what does this boil down to for you, the non-breed-expert viewer? Adorable photos of Westminster Dog Show dogs. That's what.

The best part about this show is that there's truly a breed for everyone. Big dogs, little dogs, long hair, short hair, and whatever the Chinese Crested is considered, will be there for your oohing and awwing pleasure. Which breed will win is anyone's guess, as the past winners are so different that there's no real way to predict a winner. And also considering that the judges are not making their winner selections the same way we would – based on which one has the goofiest smile and clumsiest running style. The judges are looking at breed standards and visually measuring the specifics of coat, eyes, neck length, posture, etc. But as viewers and dog lovers, we're only here for the cuteness, so here are some of the most adorable photos from the Westminster Dog Show we've seen so far.
