"Mia the Beagle Acts Like a Real Dog at Westminster Dog Show"

 

Recently, around 200 breeds of dogs from across America and several other countries took part in the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show where they competed against each other in different groups, based on their breeds.

An overall winner takes the “Best in Show” prize.

One dog that will not be taking home a prize this year is a beagle named Mia. But she has already won the hearts of people across the country.

Earlier this month, Mia the beagle took part in the agility competition. The event requires dogs to run, jump over bars, and climb over objects as quickly as possible.

Trainers work with the dogs to teach them to ignore noises, smells or other possible distractions.

Mia, however, was not able to ignore the distractions. When it was her turn to compete, she stopped to smell the ground. She wandered away from the course.

Finally, Mia finished the event in 66 seconds. That was more than 30 seconds slower than the fastest competitors that day.

One person wrote, “Mia wanted to do her best at the agility course, but she also just wanted to be a dog and do dog things.”
