He's was just crowned the winner of the 137th Annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show!

Also his full name is Banana Joe V Tani Kazari and that's just adorable.

After snatching up Best In Show, Banana Joe and his handler Ernesto Lara decided to take in NYC's sights.

The two of them were snapped hanging out together on the 86th floor observation deck of the Empire State Building!

Must be nice to be on top of the world literally and as a dog show winner! LOLz!

Banana Joe!!

First off, let us say that we absolutely love that name!

Banana Joe is an Affenpinscher who just won the 137th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show!

The little 5-year-old doggie beat out almost 3,000 other dogs to win the most illustrious title!

Banana Joe has actually won best in show 86 times! Just never at the big show in Madison Square Garden.

He's the first of his breed to ever win Westminster! Congrats!!

The actress reveals that growing up in the land of Oz, her parents were dog show BUFFS, which meant Rebel was looped into the family business at an early age.

Feeling a change of scenery would be a good move for your career?

You could be a dog semen collector instead!

In the documentary, Show Dog, Josh Dean interviews a show dog semen collector.

If you're wondering what she does…she "manually manipulates" dogs into giving samples for breeders.

The point of the program is for zealous dog owners to keep their purebreds for generations.

But if you ask us, this job (above) is just too messy for us…

Messy…and icky!

Elizabeth the Lhasa Apso!

Crufts is the UK equivalent of the Westminster Dog Show and it's the largest in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records.

The 7-year-old doggy is owned by the proud Margaret Anderson.

Funny fact about the Lhasa Apso: they were bred in Tibet as guard dogs for Buddhist monasteries and Tibetan nobility.

Not sure how effective of a guard they'd be with that long hair running down their faces but maybe they used to rock ponytails.

LOLz!

Congrats to Elizabeth the dog and Margaret Anderson!

It's always so cool to watch dogs run an agility obstacle course.

Well this dog was running the course at Crufts this year which is the world's largest dog show.

The dog made it almost all the way through the obstacles but, once the finish line was in sight, nature called.

Check out the above video to see one dog decide he'd rather relieve himself than go for the gold.

Maverick, a gorgeous grey, five-year-old Weimaraner was once kept in a crate where he was malnourished and chewed his tail raw in frustration.

Then Dan Stallings found him on craigslist, and Dan ran a Weimaraner rescue so he adopted Maverick.
