Bill Cosby is not top dog in the world of posh pooches.
Harry, the award-winning, crowd-pleasing terrier coowned by the "Fat Albert" mastermind, lost out to an English springer spaniel in the finals Tuesday at the Westminster Kennel Club dog show at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Cosby's six-year-old Dandie Dinmont, the top-ranked dog coming into the contest among the 2,628 entrants in 165 breeds and varieties, easily scored a blue ribbon in the Best of Breed category and was deemed the frontrunner for Best in Show.
But when it came to the final tally, Harry, nicknamed for the English prince (his official moniker is Hobergays Fineus Fogg), was knocked into second place by Diamond Jim. |
