LISA'S ANIMAL TALES: MARYLAND MUTT WINS AGILITY AT WESTMINSTER (Watch)

An Ellicott City, Maryland dog named Nimble won the agility competition at the Westminster Dog Show, becoming the first mixed-breed dog to win the event. 

Nimble, handled by Cynthia Hornor, was named the Masters Agility Champion Winner and the All American Dog winner. The latter prize goes to the highest-scoring pup in the Masters Agility competition. 

Nimble also placed first in the event's 12-inch class. 

Video shared by the event showcases Nimble's impressive race time of just 28.76 seconds.

The border collie-papillon mix leapt through a hoop, raced through a tunnel, rapidly dodged poles and cleared several other hurdles alongside Hornor to take home the top prizes. Announcers could be heard cheering wildly for Nimble as he dashed through the course, with Hornor providing guidance.
