During Topsfield Holiday on the Green, Coldwell Banker crowned an English shepherd named Chief during its annual Pooch Pageant.

Chief, an English shepherd who sported holiday lights, took home top honors at the annual Coldwell Banker Pooch Pageant.

Coldwell Banker hosts the pageant each year during Topsfield Holiday on the Green. While Chief came in at number 1, every dog was recognized at the event. For instance, the award for the shiniest coat went to Skye, a West Highland terrier, and a 10-year-old Jack Russell named Onyx earned recognition for being the most calm dog in the pageant.

The contestants, who ranged from tiny terriers to an Irish wolf hound, paraded outside for the judges. Inside the office, Mrs. Claus greeted children, who enjoyed holiday treats.

The top three winners were:

1. Chief, an English shepherd with a flawless coat and a big smile

2. Bella, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, who sported a doggie Santa hat and red plaid jacket

3. Blue, an Irish wolf hound and the biggest dog in the competition
