Great Scot! Sadie the Scottie from Michigan wins Westminster

By AP

NEW YORK – A Scottish terrier from northern Michigan is America's new top dog.

Sadie the Scottie walked off with the title last night by winning best in show at the Westminster Kennel Club.

Sadie is owned by Amelia Musser of Mackinac Island, Mich., and sports the champion's name of Roundtown Mercedes of Maryscot. She was the huge favorite, and a crowd of about 15,000 saw the 4-year-old earn her 112th best in show ribbon.

Sadie beat out six other dogs in the final ring. Also in contention were a whippet, a French bulldog, a toy poodle, a brittany, a puli and a Doberman pinscher.
