[ISILVERMN at aol.com (ISILVERMN@aol.com)]

Last week, the Eukanuba AKC National Dog Show was held in Long Beach,  CA.  
This week's selection shows a sampling of the entries and  activities.
 
For my main PAW, we have the Dachshund Judging, where the dogs and  their 
trainers parade for the judges:
