Lena Dunham posted a pic in her underwear the other day – but it wasn’t one of those kinds of snaps.
The actress and Girls writer shared a picture on her Instagram account of her blood-stained knickers after her rescue dog Lamby bit her in the bum. Writing on the post, Dunham told fans:
‘My dog bit me on the ass and Jemima Kirke captured the image of a life time #hopelessromantic #therewillbeblood’
Dunham later tweeted a series of updates including:
Lamby has bitten me twice and both times it was in response to me sobbing. Can I turn this info into some kind of animal behavior thesis?

The bite doesn’t hurt that much. Just continuing to make pathetic excuses for my dog: he had a hard childhood, my shorts were too short, etc

New York Times journalist David Carr joked it was “time to change Lamby’s name” to “Bitey”.
Dunham was quick to reply, adding,”I was leaning towards C**ty but yours is better for shouting across the dog park, I think.”
