Why? Because Crufts is on.
That vacant stare, normally the preserve of teenagers, has been taking hold of dogs all over as they catch up with their canine heroes.
Dogs such as Henry here.
Others, like Marley, follow every move.
Kia the German Shepherd likes to take part while the agility round's on.
Others weren't bothered, and got more excited when it was denta time. So cute!
By the way, we love the photo from the show in 2010 below.
Of course, it's not only Crufts they like. How can we forget this dog watching the tennis recently?
