German shepherd rushed to hospital - after downing litre bottle of advocaat
Vets put Bella on a drip to try to flush the 17.2 per cent alcohol out of the pooch's system
A young dog was left feeling ruff - after downing a litre bottle of Christmas advocaat.
German shepherd Bella was found struggling to walk and bumping into walls after she managed to find the booze on a table at her home last Sunday.
The thirsty pooch had managed to knock over the 17.2 per cent alcohol proof bottle - before lapping up the contents from the floor.
Shocked owner Rachel Day returned to her house in Shepherds Bush, west London, at around 4pm to find boozy Bella looking a bit worse for wear.
And the mum-of-four put two and two together after discovering the smashed bottle of the festive liqueur.
Seven-month-old Bella was rushed to the Blue Cross animal hospital in Victoria, Central London, where vets put her on a drip to try to flush the alcohol out of the pooch's system.
She was kept in overnight to sleep off her heavy drinking session and was allowed to go home the next morning after making a full recovery.
Rachel said: "She looked like a drunk person. There was lager and coca-cola on the table outside too, but she obviously knew what she preferred.
"I think she just wanted to enter into the festive spirit but she evidently didn't know her limits."
