Dog lovers around the world have the 11th and 12th of next month marked on their calendars -- the dates of the Westminster Kennel Club's 132nd All-Breed Dog Show. But that's not the only big canine-related event set to happen that week. In New York at Bonhams several dog collars that used to belong to the Duke of Windsor will go up for auction. The auction is set to coordinate with the dog show, and 5 leather collars that were worn by the Duke and Duchess' pug dogs will be going up for sale and are expected to go for as much as $3000. One collar even has a tag that reads "I belong to the Duke of Windsor." How quaint.
