Simple answer and one I am loathed to admit I know, seeing as I can't abide mutts of any size or shape.
The winner of Crufts Best in Show is the dog that most closely matches the required breed standard. All the different breeds have standards that the dog are supposed to represent.
The winner is the one that gets closest to its individual standard, this year it was the little furry football...

Yeah, but many of the other dogs were world/european/uk show champions, so hardly that far from breed standard.
At that level it MUST be subjective.

So, out of a Flat Coat Retriever, a Newfoundland, a Grehyound, a Bearded Collie, a Kerry Blue Terrier, a Standard Poodle and a Pekingese, the dog with two ***** and no head wins

Diablo,
totally agree with you mate. Watched part of the final and thought it was a joke, fecking Toy dog winning, sorry, but I see no use for the Toy group.
Now if a Weimaraner had one, well, it'd be a totally different story.
I'm just pished off I missed the coverage of Gundog day Did enjoy crufts the other year though, a fair few hours looking at lots and lots of lovely weimaraners
best thing you could do with the winner would be to set it on fire, at least then it'd have a use, as an attraction in the main ring.
No, I don't condone animal cruelty, so chill, ok

Did you know they accidentally awarded a rolled up sheepskin rug the 1st prize, then only when it didnt move for 6 hours that it was infact a rug. Then 'poopie' won it - cause it looked the same.
