This time, the giant schnauzer went the full Monty. After coming close in the last two years, Monty the giant schnauzer won the top prize at the Westminster Kennel Club dog show Tuesday night, leaving handler and co-owner Katie Bernardin almost too emotional to speak.

Huge honors for a 5-year-old Giant Schnauzer named Monty from New Jersey who came out on top at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show were also historic. Monty won the prize for Top Dog in the Country on Tuesday, Feb. 11 in New York City's Madison Square Garden after coming close twice before.

Monty the giant schnauzer was named Best in Show Tuesday night, capping off the 149th annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.
