Tim McGraw revealed that his bracco Italiano named Lepshi was named best breed at the 147th Westminster Kennel Club dog show in New York City.

“So proud of Lepshi!! He’s always been a winner in our eyes!,” McGraw wrote next to a picture of the pup posing with his medal. “Lepshi won best of breed today for the Bracco Italiano, the first year for the breed at Westminster. #westministerdogshow.”

According to the Associated Press, Lepshi is co-owned by McGraw, Kristi Libertore, Tony Libertore and Jenell Tonini-Zanotto. Lepshi is handled by Ryan Wolfe.

“He’s a wonderful ambassador for the breed,” Wolfe told The Associated Press. “Lepshi aces the breed’s trademark ground-covering trot.”
