Is this really sport?

Ok, so I guess this is a big deal to some people, but I'm still not sure about the entire dog show thing. I don't know about you, but I just never really had the desire to have a dog that I could travel with, and show as a show dog. I was also watching Family Feud on the game show network Sunday, and one survey was the wierd things people do with their pets. Share food with them, sleep with them, and others. Now, is this really a dog? Seriously.....

Apparently it's a Pekinese or something like that...I'm not sure that qualifies as a dog. If a cat, or any other small domestic animal can eat you, you don't qualify to be a dog.....
