Meet Winnie

Breed: Miniture Schnauzer x

Barking from: Mandeville

What's up dog?

We welcomed Winnie to our family shortly after my partner had a major leg injury. From this incident he suffered PTSD so going back to work was nerve racking. Winnie acts as chief ute dog and an excuse to have a break. If the boss is feeling anxious then Winnie is happy to lie on his chest. Winnies co workers love having her on site and are proud to show her off.

2025 NZ People's Choice Award

We believe no dog should be left behind.


Every dog entered into the competition is automatically in the running for the 2025 People’s Choice Award — and the winner will be decided by you, the public.


This year, we’re giving the aroha back to our communities.


Each year, our campaign is supported by a number of incredible charities across Aotearoa that work tirelessly to improve the lives of dogs and people alike. In 2025, we’re shining a spotlight on these organisations and the vital mahi they do.


As part of the voting process, every voter will have the chance to donate to our amazing mental health or dog-focused charities.


It’s your vote, your voice, and your opportunity to make a difference.
