Summary

This is the story of Harry the show dog. Since he was 6 months old, he learned how to become a professionally trained show dog, run gracefully in the ring with a professional handler, and how to show well to the judge in the ring. He traveled across many states every weekend to compete and become a champion show dog at a very early age. He was winning so often that he was getting special bubble baths and his picture taken every weekend. His dream was to go to the biggest show in NYC, The Westminster Kennel Club in NYC at the largest sports arena, that was televised every year. The story ends with a special learning moment for children; that it's okay if things don't always go as planned. While winning and losing will come up in life, it's important to celebrate life's joys and also manage life's difficult moments. It's important to praise the effort instead of the final result.
