Tennis star Andy Murray has admitted he is missing his dogs - despite cruising past the Australian Open first round.
The British number one saw off German teenager Alexander Zverev in a 6-1 6-2 6-3 victory to reach the second round of the competition in Melbourne.
Murray, however, whose wife Kim is due to give birth to the couple's first child, posted a picture of his beloved pooch on Instagram and said: "Always nice to get through the first round of any tournament...
"Happy with the start today whilst I was out there sweating in 35 degrees this little monkey was chilling in the snow, always miss my dogs when I'm on the road."
Murray has two Scot's Border terriers Maggie May and Rusty.
Maggie is so popular, she even has her own Twitter account.
