She’s ruff competition!
A 3-year-old Scottish deerhound named Claire won the National Dog Show 2020 Thursday — becoming the first of her breed ever to fetch the coveted title.
The smiley pooch won the top accolade with her owner, Angela Lloyd, at her side — beating out seven finalists and a total of 538 entries.
Dog lovers quickly took to social media to cheer the tall, scraggly-haired underdog.
“A Scottish deerhound named Claire won the dog show. Good news for Claires everywhere,” one fan gushed.
Another added, “A beautiful dog, a great winner. Congrats Claire! :)”
The host of the annual Thanksgiving day competition, Kennel Club of Philadelphia President Wayne Ferguson, said it’s the first time in the show’s 135-year history that the breed emerged as a star.
“Scottish deerhounds are not usually in the best-in-show limelight,” Ferguson told NJ Advance Media, adding that they’re “one of the oldest breeds that the American Kennel Club recognized.”
