Meet New Zealand's top office dog for 2021

September 28, 2021

The supreme winner is a wellbeing dog from Auckland.

Over the past few months, a comprehensive search has been underway to find this year's Top Office Dog.

Not only does this doggo have to be clever, playful, photogenic and empathetic, it also has to be gainfully employed.

Every year there is a pack of cute contenders all vying to win the competition run by Frog Recruitment - and this year was no exception.

But there can only be one supreme winner.

Watch the Seven Sharp video above to see who took the top spot.
