The finals will air on the USA Network from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET.
Here are the results from Monday's judging of hound, toy, nonsporting and herding. A Puli won in the herding group. Check this out.
Today the sporting, working and terrier groups will be judged, followed by the best in show.
Here's a USA Today article by Janice Lloyd about the annual show.
She will be tweeting the event, and you can follow her @jlloydusat.
Lloyd wrote that true champions — and not necessarily their breeders or handlers — know how to work a crowd.
That Grace Kelly-type seductiveness is not as easy to teach as sit or stay. In fact, some say it is not teachable.
"A famous handler, George Ward, used to always say about a dog that the more independent and unpredictable it is, the better a show dog it is," says Matthew Stander, co-founder of Dog News, a weekly magazine "I think that that's true. It shows the dog has a mind. You don't want it to look like a robot."
We all remember 2008's Uno, the first beagle to win best in show.
It's all about the cute.
