David and Jack Howells, a father-and-son pairing, have been crowned champions at the Sheep Dog World Trial, according to the BBC.
The pair said they "never in a million years" thought they would achieve the win, reflecting their surprise at claiming the title.
Sheepdog trials test the skill of handlers and their dogs in herding sheep through a course of obstacles and pens, with competitors judged on precision, control and time.
The Howells' victory adds to a long tradition of family involvement in the sport, where skills and techniques are often passed down between generations of handlers.
The BBC report did not provide further details on the specific scores or the field of competitors the father-son team defeated to win the title.
