Monty the giant schnauzer wins Best in Show. See the Westminster Dog Show highlights in photos.

The 149th Westminster Kennel Club dog show put about 2,500 dogs of all sizes to the test and Monty the giant schnauzer came out on top Tuesday night, winning the prestigious Best in Show title at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Four finalists were chosen Monday: a bichon frisé called Neal, a whippet and repeat runner-up known as Bourbon, a shih tzu called Comet who's been a finalist before, and a German shepherd named Mercedes, who came in second last year.

Judges picked three more finalists Tuesday evening: an English springer spaniel called Freddie, Monty, who won his group for a third straight year, and Archer the Skye terrier, who, unsurprisingly, came out of the terrier group.
