Mark Wheeler and Debbie Sayring's "bundle of joy" has won Wanganui Chronicle Pet Idol competition.
Readers were asked to enter by sending in a photo of their pets which were published for people to vote for their favourite.
Of the 46 entries, a photo of Tammy on her hind legs attracted the most of the more than 500 votes.
Mark and Debbie have had the Sydney silky Scottish terrier and jack russell cross for about 18 months.
"She's full on, she never stops," Mark said. "She's loves people and children."
