Associate Professor Chilli Chipotle Penelope von Krumm

Breed: Miniature Dachshund

Barking from: Melbourne, VIC

What's up dog?

Our little Associate Professor is Head of Puplick Relations at PROJECT ROCKIT - Australia's youth-driven movement against (cyber)bullying. She boosts team morale with licks, woofs, nuzzles and by bringing a soundscape of soothing white noise (snoring).

Reporting directly to the CEO, when working from home she ensures that all tasks are completed on time before 5pm when it's walk o'clock. In complement to the workplace EAP program, she is on call for professional counsel at any time, day or night.

2025 Australia People's Choice

We believe no dog should be left behind.


Every dog entered into the competition is automatically in the running for the 2025 People’s Choice Award — and the winner will be decided by you, the public.


This year, we’re giving the love back to our communities.


Each year, our campaign is supported by a number of incredible charities across Australia that work tirelessly to improve the lives of dogs and people alike. In 2025, we’re shining a spotlight on these organisations and the vital work they do.


As part of the voting process, every voter will have the chance to donate to our amazing mental health or dog-focused charities.


It’s your vote, your voice, and your opportunity to make a difference.
