Saturday Morning star James Martin, 46, said he visited London’s Harrods store for a pair of shoes and ended up buying his adorable dog Ralph six years ago. Spilling all on the encounter, he said: “I have two dogs – a working cocker spaniel called Cooper and a little Lhasa Apso called Ralph that I bought p***ed from the pet store at Harrods one lunchtime!” Elaborating further, he added to the Daily Star: “It was a boozy working lunch, the day before Saturday Kitchen, and I had been celebrating. “I ended up on the top floor of Harrods thinking I was going to buy a new pair of shoes, but I ended up in the wrong department and saw these two little dogs.
I thought, ‘He’s pretty cool,’ so I bought him.

“One of them was really looking at me and I thought, ‘He’s pretty cool,’ so I bought him.”
The chef regularly gives his social media fans a glimpse into his life with his dogs.
Last year, he shared a picture of Ralph wearing a pair of glasses followed by a picture of him in a Christmas hat.
Many of his 189,000 followers commented on the adorable offering, with one user writing: “Ohhhh tooooo cute xx”
A second added: “He is so gorgeous x,” while a third wrote: “Haha - what a cutie!”
