A purse (monetary prize) is not offered to the winners of the Westminster Dog Show. The winner of Best in Show as well as the winners of each distinct group (Hound Group, Working Group, Terrier Group, Toy Group, Non-Sporting Group and Herding Group) are awarded a silver plated trophy. Most show dog enthusiasts and handlers/owners of show dogs would probably tell you that the esteem of winning Westminster, which is a prestigious dog show with a long and storied history, is worth more to them than any monetary award they could be given.
The prize money for the runner-up winner of The X Factor varies by season, but it is typically a large sum of money, often in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. The exact amount may be influenced by factors such as the show's budget and sponsorship deals.
The 2001 Best in show winner at the Westminster was a Bishon Frise. J.R. (Showtime Just Right) was the only Bishon to win Best in show at Westminster at that time.
