The 136th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show has started today, and adorable dogs have taken over Madison Square Garden. The Best in Show judging is tomorrow night, but until then, judges will be narrowing down the field.

You can watch judging live on your computer during the day—judging for best in group begins tonight (televised on USA). FWIW: Martha Stewart's adorable chow chow Ghenghis II won a Best in Breed ribbon today.
