This weekend, the 101st Annual National Western Stock Show is in full gear in Denver, Colo. Ranchers from around the country have been bringing their prized cows, sheep, horses and other livestock to compete and show off. Tom Field, a professor at Colorado State University, knows a little about showing off: he's selected nine students from his school to exhibit their best cows to the thousands that attend this event. They'll arrive at dawn to shampoo, blow-dry and primp these four-legged creatures and Field will be there to advise them.
