Sussex spaniel "Stump" wins Westminster's sporting group winner:Sussex spaniel "STUMP"


A Sussex spaniel nicknamed "Stump", won Westminster's sporting group.

The oldest ever winner "Stump", the 10-year-old Sussex spaniel who only recently emerged from retirement, has been named Best in Show at the 133rd annual Westminster Kennel Club dog show. He's the oldest dog to ever win that title. (An 8-year-old papillon won in 1999.)

Stump,a Sussex spaniel is owned by the veteran of the garden Cecilia Ruggles, Beth Dowd and Scott Sommer, he won the sporting group title there in 2004, after which he went into retirement. As a 10 years old, he was much older than the majority its participants in Westminster competitors. He's the first Sussex spaniel to ever win his group at Westminster.

After Stump on the winners list there were a golden retriever named Ch. Toasty's Treasure Island, an English setter named Ch. Chebaco Blames It On Trabeiz, and a labrador retriever named Ch. Beechcroft Study's Top Secret, in that order.

One well-known sporting dog was notably absent from tonight's group competition. Holly, the pointer who won the prestigious AKC/Eukanuba National Championship show in December and is ranked the No. 2 show dog in the country, was ineligible for competition because she's owned by a Westminster Kennel Club member.
