It may not have been the most fun of activities, but Karen Clifton and her boyfriend David Webb looked like they were having a whale of a time as they washed Karen's pet dogs, Betty and Marley, at home. The Strictly Come Dancing pro shared a few videos on Instagram, showing her bathing Marley, followed by Betty.
Karen's boyfriend David was heard cooing in the background: "Such a good boy! So, what we're going to do first is we're going to shampoo you, you're going to have a nice shampoo coat." "Ooh, fancy!" Karen replied as she scrubbed her dog. Next up was Betty, who was given a treat for "being awesome". "You're going to smell so lovely for all your dog friends in the park," said Karen.

The pro dancer is head over heels in love with her dogs and regularly shares photos of them on her social media. She's even made an Instagram page especially for her boos, as she affectionally calls them. Last year, Karen, 36, opened up about her close bond with her pooches and the role they've played in her life since splitting from husband Kevin Clifton. Speaking to Dog's Today magazine, Karen said: "Betty has been the glue that has helped us get through this as friends. She is my baby, the apple of my eye."
