DALMATIAN-obsessed woman and her collection.

Come on ladies.. What are you obsessed with... Colours, type of cloth, shoes, handbags, men ???????

Karen Ferrier is selling her collection of 3,500 spotty items after splitting from her hubby.

The dotty secretary wears polka-dot knickers and has black spots painted on her white car.

But after moving out of the family home to live in a caravan, she no longer has room for her collection.

Now Karen, 44, is hoping another dalmatian nut will buy her hoard of polka dot clothes and shoes, sunglasses, hats, bikinis, suitcases, ornaments — and even spotted loo paper.

Karen started to collect all things spotty after buying a dalmatian puppy called Ditto 17 years ago.

She even got her businessman husband Chess, 50, to paint black spots on her white Smart car so she was instantly recognisable driving around their home city of Southampton.

“I’m nutty about dalmatians,” said Karen, who now lives in a caravan at Wimborne, Dorset.

“Sadly Ditto died three years ago, but I’ve everything from cuddly toys and jewellery to ornaments, games, jigsaws, rollerskates, balls, stationery and candles.”

She doesn't have any family relative to inherit them? Sad.
