Pixie made an appearance on Channel 4’s coverage of the event from Birmingham with presenter Sophie Morgan taking a particular liking.
Joanne Graham, from Whalton, said: “The attention she was getting was amazing and Channel 4 recognised she was something quite different and got her on the TV coverage. She must have been the smallest dog they had on camera.”

“Pixie puts a smile on the face of everyone she meets and especially children,” said Joanne. “I’ve decided to do some therapy work with her, hopefully focusing on poorly children.
"She’s so tiny, at five years old, weighing only 1.4 kilos, yet is a huge personality. Everyone thinks she is a stuffed toy until she moves!
She lives at Broomhill Farm.
