Rhys McClenaghan met Billy at the Dublin homecoming

A police dog at Dublin Airport eyed up Rhys McClenaghan's Olympic gold medal.

As the Olympic heroes made their way home, they were greeted by some fans at Dublin Airport - including Billy, a police dog who couldn't keep his eyes off the Co Down's native gold medal.

"A slight upgrade on a bone…Billy the police dog taking a close look at Rhys McClenaghan’s gold medal," posted Dublin Airport alongside a picture of the new friends.

The 25-year-old won gold in the pommel horse final at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
