Failing to beat out the 15 other dogs from its breed at Westminster meant Grady was not eligible for the "best in show," competition held Tuesday night.

Three other prizes were awarded to Welsh Pembroke Corgi's at the event held in Madison Square Garden, but Grady did not receive any of the prizes.

The winner of the "best in show," award was a colored Bull Terrier named Rufus from Holmdel, New Jersey.
