Coco will retire a winner.

BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) -- A 6-year-old Norfolk Terrier named Coco has won the Best in Show title at the prestigious Crufts dog show.

Coco, who uses the show name Champion Cracknor Cause Celebre, beat nearly 21,500 dogs to the top prize at the world's largest dog show in its 102nd year.

Coco, who according to her owners enjoys hunting mice and small birds and lounging on the sofa, won the Terrier category to make it to the Best in Show final.

The other finalists were a beagle called Harry, a smooth coat Chihuahua called Astro, a Japanese Shiba Inu called Marnie, an English Setter called Rosco, a giant Schnauzer called Phil, and India, a Belgian Shepherd dog.

Coco's handler Peter Green said the competition would be the last for the bitc! who gave birth to three puppies last year.

"She has gone out on a real high," Green said.

Organizers said 120,000 people attended the four-day event at Birmingham's National Exhibition Center.
