Over the weekend I happened to catch a glimpse of some National Dog Show event as I flipped through the channels.
The dog on the screen at the time was a white English sheepdog. It was simply a mound of fur with four legs.
The judge was brushing back the dog's hair so she could look at the animal's eyes.
The TV announcer was explaining that each dog has to have its eyes checked to make sure they're the right shape, color, etc., etc.
Another announcer chimed in with, "Well, plus the judge has to see if the dog HAS both of its eyes. 'Cuz if you start combing through hair and you only see ONE eye . . . you're looking at the wrong end of the dog."
