The gaffe was witnessed by a packed arena and 26 million viewers at home who’d tuned in to see the winner of this year competition.
But Maisie’s trainer Kim McCalmont took the embarrassing moment in her stride and calmly got rid of the evidence.
One viewer wrote: “Oh my days !!!! Maisie having a poo on her lap of honor is just brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
“She’s basically saying to her owner ‘I’ve been poked and prodded all day and this is what I think about it. Now get me some treats because I am a winning queen’.”

Someone else said: “Maisie pooing is the tv highlight of the year Smiling face with open mouth and tightly-closed eyes. She’s a winner and she had every right to s ! #crufts. ”
Maisie beat seven finalists to claim her crown, including Pixie the Kerry Blue Terrier, Frankie the Miniature Poodle, Pablo the Bishon Frize, Elsie the Irish Setter, who was the oldest competitor, Drago the Bull Mastiff, and Zokni, the Old English Sheepdog.
Reality TV star Scarlett Moffatt interviewed Kim after the win and said: “I think that might be the most expensive poo ever taken. Are you going to sell it on eBay?”
