Frank, a ruby cavalier, was the happy winner of Isle of Man Newspapers’ Picture Your Pet competition.

Five-year-old Frank, who appears in the picture to be very excited at the prospect of tucking into some of his prize goodies, was the most popular choice.

He was entered by Alex Walker, who lives in Ramsey, but it was her younger brother, Max, aged three, who accompanied Frank to pick up his winning prize.

There were more than 60 entries in the competition, which all featured in the Courier’s sister newspapers, the Manx Independent, on July 20.

Along with a wide selection of dogs and cats, proud pet owners also entered their horses, birds, guinea pigs and birds into the photograph competition.

Frank is pictured in a trolley outside Shoprite’s Victoria Road store, in Douglas, along with a pet food hamper that was provided by Mars Petcare and a Shoprite voucher worth £50.
