Penny the doberman pinscher was named Best in Show at the 150th annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, winning the most prestigious honour in US dog shows. Penny emerged victorious from a field of 2,499 dogs from more than 200 breeds, before a single judge selected her from the final group of seven canines. Each dog is judge according to how closely it matches the ideal for its breed. Cota the Chesapeake Bay retriever was named the Best in Show runner up.
