Ruth Langsford issued warning by fans after 'magical' sighting during solo dog walk

However, on a more serious note, TV star Trisha Goddard pointed out that Ruth should check her dog for ticks which live in woods and long grass.

“They are gorgeous…,” she said, before adding: “But check little Maggie for ticks!”

Sharing a similar thought another user wrote: “Gorgeous but don’t let Maggie run in there could pick up a tick! #lymesdisease.”

Unfortunately, the tiny creatures can carry bacterial infection Lyme disease.

High risk areas include southern England and the Scottish Highlands.
