Flynn the Bichon Frise won the title of Best in Show at the 142nd annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in New York's Madison Square Garden on Tuesday. The 5-year-old furball beat out 2,882 competitors and more than 200 breeds. Flynn is the first Bichon Frise to be named Best in Show since 2001. Following his win, handler Bill McFadden quipped, "I'm pretty sure I can drop the mic and say he's retired." Ty the Giant Schnauzer was named the runner-up in the competition. The star of the show, however, was arguably Bean the Sussex Spaniel. The 6-year-old canine won everyone's heart when he took a break from strutting his stuff to sit down, lift his paws in the air and beg for a treat. The impromptu trick elicited laughter and cheers from the crowd.
