High-street retailer Home Bargains has managed to divide its loyal fanbase by stocking a brand new birthday party set - that is for your dog.

The popular discounted store has gained a legion of devoted fans across the country for its vast variety of budget-priced items that range from homeware to food.

Home Bargains took to Facebook this week to share a snap of its new birthday party set that shoppers can purchase to spoil their furry friend on their big day.

Available in both blue and pink, the £3.49 party set features a range of accessories dog lovers need to spoil their four-legged friend, including birthday balloons, bunting, a party hat and a birthday bandana.

The retailer captioned the post: "Why should humans get to have all the fun?!

Give your furry friend a fab birthday party with our amazing pet party set.

Available in stores only £3.49."

The post quickly went viral with 1,200 likes and thousands of comments from shoppers who seemed split on whether they would be getting one for their own dog.

"I love dogs but ....this is too far...", said one shopper.

"My god…. I’ve seen it all now!!", agreed a second.

"Nooo, a dog is a dog stop treating them like humans", complained a third.

"Look I’m all for getting a good ole bone for their bday but balloons n banner. todays society tho", commented a fourth.

Despite some negative comments, there were definitely a few dog lovers who could not wait to get their hands on the adorable set for their pooch .
