This Morning’s resident vet was left red-faced after his pooch chewed through his lead live on air while he gave viewers advice about their pets. 

Dr Scott Miller occasionally appears on the ITV daytime show and shares his expertise with fans. 

On Monday’s instalment presented by Ben Shephard, 50, and Cat Deeley, 48, he gave advice to viewers calling in with their pet problems. 

He covered how to toilet train one caller’s rescue dog, how to stop another puppy destroying it’s owners home and tips for preventing over excitement. 

However Dr Scott, who is originally from Brisbane in Australia, soon discovered his own dog, Mango, had completely chewed through the lead and hilariously broke free when talking to a cat owner about her feline pet not eating enough.

‘… Look at this, he’s just chewed his leash, I am literally the hypocrite of hypocrites right now, I can’t train my own dog,’ he joked.

Dr Scott later advised another viewer to walk her pet alongside other dogs who are sociable and ‘let her dog free’ with them.

‘Sometimes it’s on-lead interactions that can lead to a little bit of angst and feistiness but the more you get to know your dog and the more you get to know other dogs I think the better,’ he said.

The camera showed the Aussie’s pooch walking around the studio with a short piece of lead hanging from his collar.

Ben and Cat were unable to control their laughter at the scene and Cat quipped, ‘un-lead interaction did you say Dr Scott?’

‘I’m just going to go get my coat,’ the vet replied chuckling.  

Dr Scott adopted rescue dog Mango last year and announced his family’s new addition on the show in July. 

He said: ‘I am so in love it’s insane.’

Presenter Dermot O’Leary commented: ‘That dog doesn’t know he’s born, he’s going to have a lovely life. Look at him so cute.’ 

It came after Dr Scott’s beloved pet dog Betty pᴀssed away in 2020 after spending 15 years by his side.

The vet broke down in tears on social media last year as he revealed he was reminded of his beloved pet while editing a YouTube video.

Taking to Instagram an emotional Scott wept as he explained how his latest case, helping a dog who was also called Betty, hit close to home.

Telling followers: ‘Hope you’re having a really lovely Easter. I have just watched the most recent video that we will be posting on Rescue Vet, It’s about a dog called Betty who, as you may remember, some of you, from watching Vet On The Hill,’ 

‘That my dog was called Betty. Sadly I lost her a couple of years ago, and we’ve kind of touched on that in this latest episode and it’s made me cry,’ 

He continued: ‘So for all of you that are missing a dog in your life that you’ve loved very much and you’ve lost then my heart’s with you.’

‘I’m sorry if this video makes you cry. You probably will,’ he continued. ‘But yeah, just just let me know how you’re feeling, and just know that we’re in this together.’

This Morning airs on ITV1 and ITVX weekdays from 10.30am to 12pm.
