The Leinster and Ireland rugby legend was left completely embarrassed, when he returned home to his wife Amy Huberman with the wrong pet, writing that he thought their dog Phoebe was “a bit quiet with me because she hates getting her haircut”.
O'Driscoll also added, “When you take the wrong dog all the way home from the groomers. I just thought all the black had been sheared off her face”.
It did not take long for Brian's wife Amy to announce this mishap to the world, sharing the news via Instagram.
“Brian going to the groomers to collect the dog and… taking home the wrong dog! Thought perhaps she had needed a serious groom and had taken off the darker fluff. Off they skipped. I cannot! He may defo need an ould top up on the laser eye surgery”, she wrote.
Huberman also thanked the groomers for being "so understanding".
As for her husband, Amy Huberman joked that she will be collecting their children next week, adding that she is not sure if she will allow Brian to collect her from the hairdressers, "in case he heads off with someone else’s wife!”.
“Thank you to our ledge groomers for being so understanding, and hope that the other lovely dog enjoyed her 48 seconds in our gaff before going home”, Amy wrote. “Also I think I’ll collect the kids from school this week. Also, I’m not sure I’ll ask him to give me a lift home from the hairdressers next time in case he heads off with someone else’s wife,”.
The couple have three children together, Sadie 9, Billy 7, and Ted 1.
You could be in for a spell in the dog house Brian!
