A wire fox terrier named King has taken the crown at the 143rd Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. He’s the 15th wire fox terrier to win best in show.

“You know, I love you all,” said best in show judge Peter Green as he stood in front of the finalists. “Every one of you.” Then Green, who spent years honing his own craft as a professional dog handler of terriers, raised his arm and pointed at the dog he apparently loved the most. “He’s best in show.”
