Manchester City star Mario Balotelli is set to parade his pet dog tonight.
The Mirror says Balotelli will have a special guest on board Manchester City's triumphant FA Cup open-top bus parade today - his pet dog.
While his City team-mates will have family and friends in tow on the victory parade through Manchester, Balotelli's beloved black Labrador Lucky will be by his side.
City chiefs were stunned when they received the request from Balotelli, but the offbeat striker has had his wish granted and Lucky will be with his master during the parade, which is expected to attract more than 100,000 fans.
Balotelli is devoted to Lucky and, following his £24million move from Inter Milan to City last summer, had to wait six months to bring the pet over to England from Italy because of quarantine laws.
