A crowd pleaser at 135 pounds, Nathan won the hound group at the Westminster Kennel Club on Monday night.
“He’s a kissing hound,” handler Heather Helmer said.
Nathan proved that last week during a promotional visit to a New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden when he smooched a couple of cheerleaders.
Back on the green carpet at the Garden, he got down to business. Nose alert and tail wagging, the 3-year-old walked his way into the best-of-seven final ring.
