When her victory was announced and her trainer, Gabriel Rangel, was being congratulated by a swarm of people, Sadie got up on her hind legs and wagged her tail furiously as if to say, "Hey, what about me?"

Sadie came to the show with a rather 'comical'  history. Two years previously, she got spooked at Madison Square Garden. Her handler's new shoes were too squeaky, the wooden boards covering the ice hockey rink thumped too loudly and a stray TV monitor threw her, too. Then last February, she had a potty accident on the green carpet while coming out to take her place in the final ring. So, Sadie is now the TOP DOG and has definitely redeemed herself! **
