Actually, three different Shepherds have been best in show at
Crufts...the first was bred and owned by Sheila Godden, of Kentwood
Kennels...who also bred and showed top Cardigan Welsh Corgis. That was
in 1965. The second was in 1969, and he, too, was British bred. Prince
Hussein's dog, Swashbuckler, won in 1971, and I don't know where he was
bred. Probably also in the UK, since foreign dogs couldn't get into the
country, especially just for shows, until just the past couple of
years. When the first two won, the breed was still called Alsatian over
there. There was tons of excitement when the first one won in
1965...the Kentwood dogs were very well known there and the Cardigans
were famous all over the world..

other Crufts BIS winners) click here:
