It is a way to recognize the best dogs of each sex in a breed.

I guess it may have some thing to do with points for their titles, to give more credentials toward breeding value?
Points are a part of it and there are some bragging rights that go with the award depending upon where it is won - specialites, Westminister, supported entries, Eukanuba - the win holds more prestige than at most all breed shows.
