A barmaid was left stunned when her barking dog led her into the path of a Hollywood A-lister.

Audrey Kerr was out taking Lhasa Apso cross Dino out for his daily stroll at Loch Earn on Wednesday afternoon when she saw a man and woman approaching in the opposite direction.

The 48-year-old, who is dog sitting for her boss, had to chase after Dino he started barking at the star and his girlfriend.

Audrey said: "Dino started barking at the man and I went up and had to take the dog away from him.

"He's quite strange with men, especially people with hats on. But they started clapping him and saying how gorgeous Dino was.

"It wasn't until he started talking that I said, 'You're Gerard Butler.'

"If it wasn't for Dino barking at him they could have walked right by me and I wouldn't have knew.

"He was really nice and really down to earth.

"They were fair taken with the dog and we stood and blethered for about five minutes.

"I know his parents stay in Comrie and I was asking him if he was staying for New Year and he said he really didn't know and was supposed to be in America yesterday."

Audrey, who works in The Stags Head pub at the Loch Earn Caravan Park, said she hopes the star might drop in for a drink.

"He was so down to earth and so pleasant. I invited him for a pint in the pub and he said he'd come.

"Whether he will, or not, we'll see."

Butler, 47, from Paisley, is often seen around the Perthshire and Trossachs areas while back visiting his parents.

A few days before he posed for pictures with punters in a local bar in Comrie.

A shocked barmaid bumped into Hollywood hunk Gerard Butler while walking her dog in the woods.

Audrey Kerr met the Scots actor near Loch Earn Caravan Park in Perthshire after pooch Dino barked at the 300 star and stopped him in his tracks.

He was walking in the forest with a mystery woman and was wrapped up for the cold weather – hiding his real identity.

Shop assistant and barmaid Audrey said: “I didn’t even ken it was him but the dog went right over and was barking.

“If it wasn’t for Dino he could have walked on by and I wouldn’t have even known it was him.

“It was only when he started talking that I realised it was Gerard Butler.”

The actor revealed he had spent Christmas with family in Scotland and patted Dino before heading on his way.

But Audrey snapped a quick picture with the Hollywood star and it has racked up thousands of likes on Facebook.

She wrote in the caption: “Not everyday you meet Gerard Butler.”

Hundreds of jealous fans poured in on the comments with one writing: “Sooooo incredibly jealous.”

Others wanted to know exactly where they met, with Sandra Douglas adding: “In what woods was this lol. Influx of females if you tell xx.”

And Claire Kerr said: “Amazing. He’s so handsome. Xxx.”

The Scots star, originally from Paisley, has starred in global blockbusters including 300, London has Fallen, Law Abiding Citizen and The Phantom of the Opera.

But the down to earth 47-year-old was more than happy to pose for a pic with Audrey who shared the snap with the Facebook page Scotland from the Roadside.

And Audrey, 48, was taken by surprise when she came across the Hollywood hard-man and his girlfriend.

She said: “Dino started barking at the man and I went up and had to take the dog away from him.

“He’s quite strange with men, especially people with hats on. But they started clapping him and saying how gorgeous Dino was.

“It wasn’t until he started talking that I said, ‘You’re Gerard Butler.’

“If it wasn’t for Dino barking at him they could have walked right by me and I wouldn’t have knew.

“He was really nice and really down to earth.

“They were fair taken with the dog and we stood and blethered for about five minutes.”

And Butler even revealed to Audrey that he’s not supposed to be in Scotland at the moment.

She told STV: “I know his parents stay in Comrie and I was asking him if he was staying for New Year and he said he really didn’t know and was supposed to be in America yesterday.”

The picture earned 4,000 likes within two hours of being posted.

Chuffed Audrey played down the surprise encounter, writing: “Not everyday you meet Gerard Butler.”

Hundreds of Butler fans then swamped the page with comments.

Impressed Elise Marie wrote: “Sooooo incredibly jealous.”

Sandra Douglas wanted to know the exact spot where they met, adding: “In what woods was this lol. Influx of females if you tell xx.”

Claire Kerr swooned: “Amazing. He’s so handsome. Xxx.”

Lucy Blaylock joked: “Takes the song ‘when you go down to the woods today you’re sure for a big surprise’ to a whole new level.”

Jacqui Scott was also pressing Audrey for an exact location, begging: “OMG. You’re so, so lucky. Send me a map of how to go there please.”

Honest Kerri Brown Vice added: “I would have passed out.”

Michelle Johnston was a bit more adventurous, writing: “Books taxi to St Fillans.”

However, not everyone was smitten by the thought of an encounter with the action-movie super star.

Diarmud Griffin teased: “Gerard Butlers are native to Scotland and can be spotted in forest habitats more easily at this time of year.

“Their coats do afford them some degree of camouflage but due to hunger they have been known to hang about paths hoping for titbits from walkers.

“Approach with caution as explosions and insane terrorists are never far behind.”

We told you earlier this year how Gerard canned plans to buy a Scottish castle – in favour of kipping on his mum’s couch.

And it tops off a great 2016 for the star, who was voted into the 100 sexiest list.
