Soap success for County Durham dog
Meet Emmerdale's new chunky hunk
A new four-legged star from the North East will grace our screens on Emmerdale.
Super Cooper, a one-eyed bull dog, has won the Galas 'Pet Star for a Day' competition.
Known as a diva around the dog house, Cooper has more than 5,000 likes on his Facebook page.
Owner, Jemma Teasdale from Consett, told us that he'll need to shed a few pounds before his big day in May. She said:
“We’ll get a VIP limo picking us up from the hotel to take us to the set of Emmerdale. He’s going to be treated like a proper superstar.”
“We’re not sure what he’ll do… He’s just in one episode so he could be in the vets with paddy or just wandering down the street.”
