Minnie has been riding the open road since she was a puppy
Easy rider Minnie the dog likes nothing more than feeling the wind through her fur as she rides on a motorcycle.
The canine cruiser has clocked up more than 27,000 miles as a pillion passenger on her master's bike.
The border terrier's owner, Peter Garner from the New Forest, Hampshire, made a special box and bought "doggles" to protect his pet's eyes.
The nine-year-old pooch has now been picked as one of five animals to be the face of an insurance company.
Mr Garner, from Hale, said: "I think she enjoys it because it's getting out and about and seeing different things.
"As a puppy she always liked to sit and watch what goes on, so what better way to sit up high and see what's going past you."
He found a pair of special dog goggles at the famous Crufts show to protect her eyes.
"We do about 3,000 miles a year and she's nine years old so that's about 27,000 miles," added Mr Garner.
He said the police have not stopped his canine companion as she does not obstruct his view or interfere with the cycle's controls.
