The caption read: " Meet Filbert, the new and already much loved member of the Lineker family. He’s a rescue from the streets of LA. Met him through his foster parent and friend Reggie, @r_breakspear on a recent holiday, and it was love at first sight. I’ve been dogless for far too long."
Fans of the sports star complimented the dog's good looks along with how "amazing" it was that he is a rescue. Gary's ex-wife Danielle Bux added: "He found his person as they say," adding love heart eyes.
Another comment said: "Absolutely beautiful, a rescue dog is such a lovely thing to do, I've a rescue dog and one I already had, and you feel truly blessed. Hope you enjoy your new addition to your family."
