London, Feb 15 (IANS): Football star David Beckham treats his pet pooch to trips in a limousine for a grooming session twice a week.

The 40-year-old, who owns an English cocker spaniel called Olive, treats his pet to a beauty treatment called a dogzilian, which involves the pooch getting a haircut under her tail, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The treatment is also used by Beckham's movie director friend Guy Ritchie's dog called Coco.

“It's mad. Becks and Guy are both devoted to their puppies and spend a fortune sending them in a limo to a groomer twice a week together,” The Sun newspaper quoted a source as saying.

“They even go to each other's houses so they can play and get walked together. They know people will laugh but they don't care. They go down to the pub with Olive and Coco and show them off to the other drinkers,” the source added.

The extravagant treatment costs 75 pounds at the Purplebone grooming parlour in west London and includes a full shampoo and blow dry, as well as teeth cleaning and a deodorising spray.
