The top five dogs of Coronation Street

With David the dog being the latest addition to the canine cast of Coronation Street, let's have a look back at some of the dogs who have trotted across the cobbles.
1. Little Rover is Simon Gregson (Steve McDonald) own dog, Cookie. Find out more on that here.

2. Eccles (originally named Lady Freckles) has her own facebook and twitter. Find out more on that here.

3. Killed off in 2011 Schmeichel the Great Dane is gone but not forgotten. Find out more here.

4. And another one killed off just last year, read Farewell Faithful Ozzy.


5. Here's Tyrone with his faithful greyhound, Monica.

And there's a bonus point to the first person who can tell us what the dog was called who is with Jack and Vera Duckworth, below!

  2. Yes - short for Boomerang as he always came back to his original owner! His real name was Paddy and he was a big softie, unlike Boomer! We had to teach him to bark on command, but they dubbed in all the growling as he was too friendly to do it.
