Dog to win football season tickets

Search is on for the biggest canine football fan

A sports website is aiming to find the most devoted football fan in the dog world, and has been flooded with entries from across the UK and beyond. A spokesman for the website said: “Our contest is the first ever to celebrate Britain’s secret army of doggie football fans."

The winner will receive two season tickets, one for the football-mad canine, and another for his or her human companion.

According to one owner from Surrey, her cross-breed Max never misses a televised Chelsea game. She said: “He loves watching the game on the telly and even predicts the scores by barking before the kick off.
 
“He’s not always spot on, he does tend to be a bit optimistic before a game and usually predicts we will win six-nil.”

Other contestants include Aston Villa fan Luna Davies, and Arsenal fans Ginny and five-year old Dachshund Lenny. Lenny apparently "gets very grumpy" if his favourite team lose, and according to Ginny's owner, "she has always growled whenever Alex Ferguson comes on the screen."

To enter a canine football fan, owners can send a photo of them with their name, age and contact details to dog@TVbet.co.uk.
