Monty the giant schnauzer has made history by winning Best in Show at the 149th Westminster Kennel Club dog show, becoming the first of his breed to achieve this title. Competing against six other finalists including the Reserve Best in Show Bourbon the whippet and a bichon frisé named Neal, Monty's victory was celebrated as a revival for the Working Group, which had not won since 2004. The show featured around 3,000 dogs from various breeds and highlighted the importance of canine companionship and their roles as household pets and working animals.
