The Opposite Of Crufts

Crufts competition for the actual dog owners

It's been some time since I posted a "Crufts" idea, but the annual dog circus event still continues to provide great fuel for invention.

This year I bring to the world a new event to be called: The Opposite Of Crufts

It's something that is projected to run parallel to the main event, and directly mirror each of the competition's set pieces. Instead of the dogs being judged, it's the owners who are the competitors in the Opposite Of Crufts event.

This involves them carrying out all of the exact same set pieces as the dogs do. ie charging around a special human equivalent obstacle course; walking, turning, fetching; obedience tests; and of course being closely inspected for pedigree/grooming/poise/voice characteristics.

"And this year's Cruft's Dog Owner Winner goes to a fine grey haired executive terrier from Glasgow. The judges were particularly impressed with her penetrating gender neutral vocal fry voice, and ability to run along the shopping lane course wearing heels, whilst waving a designer clutch bag in one hand, and sending a text with the other."
