President Michael D Higgins hosted a reception at Áras an Uachtaráin on Friday in honour of the Irish women's field hockey team.
The team made history this summer, becoming the first Irish team to reach a senior world cup final in any field sport.
However it wasn't sport or ceremony that grabbed the limelight at the event - it was Bród.

The president's Bernese Mountain Dog stole the show, with the guests crowding around him for selfies.
The Madraí an Uachtaráin, Shadow and Bród, have been no strangers to the news - featuring in many garden party photos.
