Alexis Sanchez’s love affair with his two dogs has taken a bizarre step forward after the Arsenal forward posted an emotional (and slightly creepy) video on his Instagram page paying tribute to his two retrievers – complete with a Bryan Adams soundtrack.

In his latest dog-related post, the Chile international posted a montage of himself with his two canines, Atom and Humber, with Adams’ 1993 hit Please Forgive Me playing throughout.

The video included the caption “The only flaw in dogs is that the rely on human beings”, which in itself is slightly concerning, but any fan of the Arsenal star will know that he has previous for dog-related Instagram activity.

Watch the video below...

Sanchez has previously taken his two dogs on holiday with him and even brought them to Arsenal training sessions, while barely a week goes by without a dog picture appearing on his feed.

The video appears on a replay loop, giving it the impression that is never actually ends, but the combination of Bryan Adams’s heart-tugging ballad and Sanchez’s beaming smile will be enough for viewers to turn it off pretty hastily.
