Robbie Williams has installed a grisly ‘Beware of the Dog’ sign on his £17.5m London mansion – as he warns his fluffy collection of pups could cause ‘injury or death’.
The pop star, 50, and his wife, American actress Ayda Field, 45, share the upscale city pad with at least four pooches.
While he may have since added to his collection, the herd – including a pampered golden retriever, a medium sized white dog and a couple of hairy small dogs – do not appear to be the most threatening bunch.
The red and white sign – paired with a drawing of an Alsatian guard dog – reads: ‘Warning – Beware of Dogs. Not responsible for injury or death.’
Videos of Robbie posted on his and Ayda’s social media show the Angels singer cuddled up in bed with his pawed-pals as he coddles them in a baby voice.
In others, he dances while sitting in a booth at his kitchen table while stroking two dogs. In one, Ayda says: ‘Daddy’s getting cuddles!’

The couple bought the fluffy mutt in 2023, with Field posting a video of him as a puppy in the January of that year.
Talking about the pup, he said: ‘Look at this beautiful boy. He’s a bit of a stud! Look at him.’
Speaking directly to the dog, he then begins to talk in a childish voice as the hound stretches and brings its head around towards him.
He continues: ‘Yeah I’m looking at you! I’m looking at – aww! Chiefy!’

The couple introduced black and white Shih Tzu pup Buddy to their followers in 2020 – just weeks after they welcomed their fourth child home.

The dog-loving pair have owned as many as eight dogs at a time – famously allowing them all to sleep in bed with him.
In 2011 he even splashed out on a set of fur-lined ‘doggy steps’ so they wouldn’t have to jump up to lie next to him on the king-size mattress.
A source told the Irish Examiner: ‘The couple like sleeping with their pooches. Rob couldn’t stand having them sleep in another room – or, worse, outside.
‘But some of the dogs are quite small – the bichon frise pup, particularly – and Robbie’s king-size bed is huge.
‘It was too high up for them all to clamber up. So Rob bought a special, bespoke set of fake fur-lined doggy steps so they can make it up there safely. Now the whole family sleeps together.’
Williams has long been a controversial figure on the plush Kensington road where he lives – and has previously fought a bitter row with next-door neighbour Jimmy Page after he applied to install a basement pool at his London pad.
Last year the former boyband star was accused of ‘environmental vandalism’ over plans to prune 14 plants in his garden, saying they are stopping the light from reaching his Holland Park home.
The Take That frontman and Led Zeppelin rocker Page, 80, have repeatedly been at loggerheads in recent years over the former Take That star’s plans to build a mega basement at his mansion.

But the pair – whose homes are next door to each other – are said to have presented a united front when Williams last applied to reduce the height of a Robinia tree in his garden.
The feuding rock stars previously rowed after Williams applied to install an underground pool at his £17 million Kensington pad.
But the Led Zeppelin guitarist objected fearing it would damage delicate artwork in his Grade-I listed mansion next door.
Page, who has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, told the council in 2018 that he would ‘fight against a new threat’ for the house he has lived in for fifty years.
The mansion was previously owned by poet John Betjeman and Dumbledore actor Richard Harris.
He outbid David Bowie to buy it in 1972, aged just 28.
The Tower House was designed between 1875 and 1881 by ‘art architect’ William Burges as his home – and the rooms have themes such as Time, Love and Literature.
To maintain the house, the rockstar has specialists install scaffolding and sugar-soap the walls and only plays acoustic guitar to prevent damage.

Williams was finally given permission for his basement in 2019 after an almost five-year battle and work was due to start this year.
His construction company sent a letter to local residents in April telling them construction work was due to begin and would last 11 months, but it is not known whether work has started.
Williams has had to use hand tools while building it to minimise vibrations – massively increasing the price of building work.

In this time it has been subject to 46 planning decisions as he fights to renovate it.
The rocker defied Williams in 2016 by having work done on his roof – by a company called Millennium, the name of one of the singer’s greatest hits.
In 2017 the Take That star submitted plans for a giant shed on stilts in his garden so his kids could have somewhere to play.
This sparked fury with residents who complained it would block light to their gardens and spoil the surroundings.
Williams later sparked more fury and had to apologise after saying the guitarist had a mental illness and had been sitting for hours in his car outside his house.
He told Italian Radio DeeJay: ‘Jimmy has been sitting in his car outside our house four hours at a time.
‘He’s recording the workmen to see if they’re making too much noise. The builders came in and he was asleep in his garden waiting. It’s like a mental illness.’
Robbie Williams’ representatives have been contacted for comment.
