2 weeks agoSit, stay, slay: Anton the poodle named best in show at Sydney's Royal Easter Show
Anton, a standard poodle, won best dog in show at the 2026 Sydney Royal Easter Show, marking his second consecutive victory.
A Doberman pinscher named Penny won best in show Tuesday night at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, netting U.S. show dogs' most coveted prize and giving veteran handler Andy Linton another win after nearly four decades. Linton got best in show in 1989 with another Doberman, named Indy. Penny "is as great a Doberman as I have ever seen," Linton told a supportive crowd. Despite health problems, he guided the 4-year-old dog through an impeccably crisp performance.
