Westminster Kennel Membership Canine Present: Greatest in Present Winners, Breeds by 12 months

[ad_1]

The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show brings together thousands of elite dogs for a series of events and judging, culminating with the highly anticipated crowning of Best in Show.

With a rich history dating back to 1877, the WKC Dog Show is one of the most prestigious and long-standing events in the canine world, and it continues to captivate dog lovers everywhere. This year’s competition took place at Madison Square Garden and Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.

Some of the most memorable WKC Dog Show winners include Warren Remedy, a Smooth Fox Terrier who won Best in Show twice (1907 and 1909), and Ch. Warren Remedy, a Wire Fox Terrier who won in 1910. In 1933, Wareland’s Lucky Break, an Airedale Terrier, made history as the first dog to win Best in Show three times.

Here’s a list of winners throughout the event’s history by year, dog name and breed:
