Winky The Pup Loses Hilariously At Westminster But Wins Internet's Heart Instead.

Mar 01, 2019 by apost team

When we think of a dog show, most of us tend to think about show dogs racing through a course of obstacles as fast as possible. However, Winky had other ideas when it was his time to take the course.

Rather than attacking the course and running as fast as possible, he decided to make the course more of a leisurely stroll. He galloped through the course taking frequent pauses and even took a moment to soak in the crowd when he was on top of a few obstacles. While this is not what his owners had intended for him when he entered the competition, he got a ton of laughs from the crowd.

While the fastest dog on the course finished in just under forty seconds, Winky wound up crossing the finish line after over a minute and a half.

While Winky may have not won the contest, there is no question he won the hearts of thousands of people watching. His fame goes way further than the crowd that was in attendance at the dog show, as the video of him taking his time on the course has gone viral. Tons of people have shared the video online and there are countless comments pointing out how cute he is.

There is nothing better than a dog with a great personality, so even if the owners of Winky feel like they are winners, even if they may not have a dog that pays attention all the time.

Winky has been relishing in the attention he has been getting and he has even checked out his own video online. Some pictures have surfaced after the event, which show him sitting in front of a computer, while watching his own dog show video.

Winky has definitely stolen the hearts of the internet and has given tons of people who have watched the video a reason to smile.

Winky has made a point that you don't always have to be the strongest and fastest to win in the court of public opinion. The way he took his time and meandered through the course shows us all that life doesn't have to be so serious, and it even paid off with the accolades he received after finishing.

While he wound up at the back of the pack when the results came in from the dog show, Winky's owners could not be more proud of him. If you like the mentality that this lovable dog has, make sure to pass this story with a lazy friend.
