Sherri Ann Cabot from Best in Show

Sherri Ann Cabot is from the comedy mockumentary called Best in Show. Best in Show is about the people behind the world of dog shows, the dog owners. This hilarious movie introduces us to five competitors and their dogs and we follow them as they prepare and attend a prestigious dog show. Each have very distinct personalities, not only in how they compete but also we can see it clearly in their costumes. One of these characters is Sherri, who along with Christy is entering her poodle named Rhapsody in White (aka Butch) into the competition.

Sherri is a prefect of example of owners resembling their dogs. She wears lots of white and white fur pieces that match perfectly with her dog. Other colors she wears are purple and pink jackets and shirts, and even an animal print vest.
