The 2015 Westminster Dog Show just wrapped up and among the points of interest this year: a beagle named Miss P brought home the title of Best in Show, and Patty Hearst's shih tzu Rocket won in the Toy Dog category. That's right: the heiress to the Hearst fortune, who became a household name when she was kidnapped in 1974, now shows dogs. Today, Hearst goes by Patricia Hearst-Shaw and has been showing dogs for about a decade.
But Rocket and Miss P weren't the only beauties at Westminster, of course. We put together the best pictures from the show -- which is your favorite?

The victor!
