I was suprised to see there was only 5 neos entered in the breed trial, especially when other breeds had many more entries.
How do they decide who gets to be invited?

Continuing off of Beth's question: Do others get to enter after those that have been invited have entered?

I hope someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that the top 5 dogs from all breeds are invited then it is a crap shoot for all other entries. No matter the breed, Westminster accepts a total of 2,500 dogs.

i just have seen the video, for what i saw on it no one of the 3 males there move like a mastino, the one that won has better type but with that movement i cant understand why he won.

I cannot understand why the handler did not even attempt to break the pacing and get a smoother gait. Yes the mastino is permitted to pace but we all know it is not preferred. The large choke collar? Gave the appearance that the dog was difficult to handle. Why would a pro handler choose to use this collar in such a prestigous dog show?

I thought the dog had wonderful type and mass. The movement definately did not give a good impression of the breed. I do like that the dog was lively and playful.

the 1st dog have displastic rear and the right rear leg is limping (very poor handling). 2nd far to light in the rear with very little drive - one just see a rump going up and down. 3rd nervous but best drive but to narrow in movement.
