He was Leeds's own 'Littlest Hobo'.

The story of Civic, a homeless dog the city of Leeds fell in love with

Do you remember Civic the dog? The homeless hound who lived rough outside the Civic Hall in Leeds feeding on the Lord Mayor's scraps.

Back in the early 2000s he was a friend to the Lord Mayor and politicians as he skulked around Millennium Square and the precincts of the civic quarters.

Over the years the collie cross breed feasted on chicken drumsticks and the finest leftovers from functions at the council headquarters. He had also become a firm favourite with kitchen staff.

He was believed to have been living in the city centre for several years.
