Hickory, a 5-year-old Scottish deerhound, was crowned best in show last night at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show at Madison Square Garden.
The pooch is the first of her breed to ever take top prize at the nation’s largest dog show.
One of her owners, Cecilia Dove, of West Virginia, said she’d reward Hickory with “all the ice cream she wants!”
The pooch’s handler, Angela Lloyd, said Hickory rose to the occasion.
“She showed like she never showed before,” Lloyd said.
