Lucey, an 18-month old pooch, has beaten 49 drooling competitors to win this year's Beautiful Bulldog pageant held in Des Moines, Iowa.
Lucey's owner Tiffany Torstenson is a surgeon and said she often takes her dog to work. She said Lucey's demeanour around doctors and patients helped convince her human family that she would make a perfect therapy dog.
Lucey was certainly a hit with the crowd at the event, besting a pair of boys named Lord Nelson and Zuul to take the top honours.
