Caption competition*: What's Percy the dog thinking?

This is Percy – he likes to spy on his neighbours. *There’s not a physical prize, but you will get our undying respect.

A READER SENT us in this photograph of their dog Percy, telling us he likes to spy on their neighbours doing their gardening.

We’re dying to know what’s running through Percy’s mind as he’s peering over the garden wall.

Is he criticising their lettuce beds? Keeping an eye on their poodle? Or wondering if they’ll be using the barbecue any time soon?

Tell us your captions in the comments.
