BGT contestant called on to train naughty Pebbles
SIMON Cowell has been forced to draft in help because his German shepherd puppy is running riot.
The Britain's Got Talent star, 64, told the Mirror he has asked Lucy Heath from the incredible dancing dog act The Tricksters for help with training Pebbles.
"She's a little bit naughty," he groans.
"She nicks everything, including all the telephones in the house. Anything she can get hold of, she will take.
"And then when I try and get it back, she's running away from me and she just thinks it's a game. So she's got a very playful nature."
Simon ditched his mobile phone in 2017, and reckons it makes him happier, although it does mean he is more reliant on the house phone which Pebbles, who joined the family in January, keeps stealing.
Lucy and Strike, a five-year-old border collie, wowed the BGT judges in the first week of auditions last month with a stunning dance act to the tune of Friend Like Me from the Aladdin soundtrack.
Simon went backstage to meet Lucy after her performance and admitted he could use someone who knows how to control an unruly dog.
