We’re speaking of America’s most iconic dog show. The 149th annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show returned to Madison Square Garden for the first time in five years and one dog stood above the rest.

Monty is the first Giant Schnauzer to ever win Best in Show and the first Working Group dog breed to win Best in Show since 2004. This 5-year-old pup just made history with his win! The TikTok account for the @WKCDogs posted this celebratory moment and fans are applauding Monty.

After coming close in the last two years, Monty the giant schnauzer won the top prize at the Westminster Kennel Club dog show Tuesday night, leaving handler and co-owner Katie Bernardin almost too emotional to speak. “He always tries so hard, and we’re just proud of him,” she told the crowd at Madison Square Garden.
