Council House Swap viewers are stunned as couple take their DOG while going to visit prospective new homes
IF you were going to look at a prospective new home, would you take your dog with you?
Well, that’s exactly what couple Michael and Lucy did as they went to view Maria’s home in Belgrave, Leicester, on the latest episode of Council House Swap.

The pair, along with their son Thomas, were looking for a smaller house after their three-bed home had become unmanageable.
After registering on a house swap website, they’d decided to go and have a look at Maria’s home – despite the fact that Lucy was immediately unimpressed by the state of the dressmaker’s slightly messy home.
As they pulled up outside the property, Lucy failed to hide her disappointment as she looked at the exterior, before she, Michael and Thomas all got out their car – along with their bulldog Dave.
They gave Maria no indication that they were bringing their dog with them, and viewers were left stunned by their audacity.

Once again, their dog came with them, with one person tweeting: “Why do they keep bringing their f**king dog with them!!!”
“They’ve bought the dog again. I’d tell them it wasn’t coming in. Cheeky s*ds,” another added.
Viewers were also less than impressed with Lucy’s attitude, as she didn’t hold back while slating the aspects of the home she didn’t like.
“Lucy has got a right b**chy face,” one person wrote.
