What was the hottest New York Fashion Week party? Why the first annual NYC Doggies & Tiaras Pageant of course. (NYmag.com/Slideshow)

Dog Show was reporting, not comedy.

It's a testament to the quality of the internet that I spent a good 20 seconds staring at picture 14 trying to find the real yorkie.

I am now extremely disappointed.

And christing fuck these are some ugly dogs.

They are ugly, but it is nice to see pageant contestants with some body fat.

Aspen is my favorite. That face.

I would prefer to see dogs with chill vibes.

ok

so

the pug with the incognito celebrity sunglasses reduced me to tearful giggles, causing my boyfriend to sort of do the "ah-hah.. hah... is this really that funny?" laugh

later he remarked: "it seems like most of these people would be happier with rats"

and now I want to see a fancy rat beauty pageant

Fido: Duke, duke! Go check out pack leader!

Duke: What? Why?

Fido: JUST DO IT

[Duke goes into other room where pack leader is sitting, with Fido snickering behind]

Duke: bwahahaha! Where did you get that scent? She smells like a badger! With a fish!

Fido: She has no idea! She can't smell it!

Duke: I feel sort of bad for her, not knowing how funny she smells...

Fido: Oh come on. Let's get some chicken smell to put on her.

Duke: hahahaha!

So many of their eyes cry out "rescue me from this." I will be haunted by that look tonight...

How exactly does one make a wig stay on a dog? Because all I can think of is this scene from Scrooged.

Do you people know how much time I devote to telling my newly acquired black pug how fucking cute he is? Cause it's quite a bit of my daily time. I'm telling him again now.

I LEARNED IT FROM YOU.

Totally the best $83 I've spent this year.

Also, since I am a part-time groomer I can say in all seriousness that people really do have the tendency to look and act like their dogs just like in the beginning of 101 Dalmatians. That shit is real.

Additionally, these twizzlers are extra fresh.
