Jon Attenborough, a 34-year-old Dundee United fan, and his Labrador Sam ticked off the last pitch on his list on Saturday.
A visually impaired footie fan has become the first person to visit all 42 Scottish league grounds - with a dog.
Jon said: "I'm a big football fan and love Scottish football, so it's amazing to have visited every single ground with Sam. It was such a special day completing it. He was partnered with guide dog Sam in 2018, and his confidence in attending games has grown in the years since then. He had attended a number of Dundee United home games over previous years, but started his challenge to "Complete the 42" in February 2022 when he watched his team draw 0-0 at derby rivals Dundee.

Jon added: "I love everything about gameday - the matchday atmosphere and the crowd noises. A growing number of clubs in Scotland now have audio descriptive commentary, which really improves the experience.
After completing the challenge, Jon was presented with a commemorative plaque from the SPFL - with pup Sam receiving a medal to wear around his neck.
