JILLY, a Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen from Wallingford tonight won Best in Show at Crufts.
Jilly, who is owned by Sara and Gavin Robertson, saw off more than 20,000 dogs to take the coveted title at the four-day competition.
The three-year-old was tonight up against six other rivals at the NEC in Birmingham who had each been awarded Best of Breed and then Best in Group in previous rounds.
Jilly was awarded the first place rosette after being assessed by a Kennel-club approved judge.
