The country's most prestigious dog show is heading to the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens, N.Y., for the second year in a row.

The prize? The Westminster Legend Trophy, a hand-engraved crystal bowl. The competition is once again primed to be an enjoyable experience for dog lovers everywhere.

The breeds of competing dogs are broken into seven groups: Sporting, Hound, Working, Terrier, Toy, Non-Sporting and Herding. Terriers have historically had the most success in the competition, winning 47 times. Hounds have won the last two contests, with Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen Buddy Holly winning last year.

All 50 states are represented, and the states with the most dogs in the competition are Florida (201), New York (190) and California (183). There are more than 100 international entries from 12 countries, with the most coming from Canada (88).

Here is everything you need to know about the Westminster Dog Show, including the full schedule of events and TV and streaming information.
