A West Lothian pub that underwent a controversial name change has been targeted with graffiti.
The Willow Tree, formerly known as The Black Bitch, in Linlithgow was vandalised in the last few days as artwork appeared showing a dog urinating on the venue's new logo.
The graffiti shows a black dog with its leg cocked up against the image of a willow tree.

Thousands of customers expressed their frustration at the move, dubbed 'an insult to the whole community', but despite a public consultation, the name change was given the green light last year.
The eyebrow-raising artwork was shared on social media by one resident who suggested that someone was 'sending a message to Greene King', with the post attracting thousands of 'likes' and comments.
One local said: "Makes me very happy to see this done. Long may it continue and reapplied every time it gets taken off", while a second wrote: "Glad someone's finally done something. I wondered how long it would take."
A third commented: "Absolutely awesome and she ain't no hound dog either.. She is The Black Bitch and always will be. Hopefully whoever takes it over again change the name back."
A fourth joked: "Well done to Linlithgow’s own Banksy - whoever you are! Absolutely brilliant!" A fifth said: "Long live Linlithgow and our long loved traditions", while a sixth concluded: "Made my day."
A staff member at The Willow Tree confirmed the rude sketch was graffiti, and bar owners said they are working to get it removed.
