Pudsey, a male Border Collie, Bichon Frise and Chinese Crested powderpuff cross, is due to retire from the competition at the age of 11.
Ashleigh, 22, and Pudsey came to the world's attention in 2012 when they won ITV's talent show.
The pair won £500,000 and performed in front of the Queen at the Royal Variety Performance later that same year.
Yesterday, the trainer and her pooch took part in the Agility Championship final.
