How did Instagram followers react to Holly and her puppy?
The snap pulled in plenty of engagements in rapid order, with nearly 20,000 Likes left within a couple of hours.
Scores of followers also left appreciative comments, with several remarking on how Bailey’s eyes could melt hearts.
“Such sweet kind eyes,” one enamoured person wrote.
Look at that gorgeous puppy face.
Another person pondered whether a dog should be allowed in a beauty salon. But someone else noted how they also take their dog “everywhere they can” and would do the same as Hols.
And others took the opportunity to wish Holly a happy new year and ask about when she will be back on the box.
But the majority of fans who took the time to comment made it clear just how adorable they find Bailey.
Fellow TV presenter Davina McCall cooed: “OMG the way he is looking at you. That’s love.”
“Look at that gorgeous puppy face,” gushed another observer.
And a third summed it up: “So cute!”
This Morning airs on ITV, weekdays, at 10am.
