An amazingly talented Tibetan mastiff called Tiger (Hu Hu) dog has
performed a breathtaking high wire stunt in front of thousands of
spectators in his home city Chongging, in China.
Tiger was some 4 metres above the ground and walked across a 10 metre gap on two thin steel wires:
a remarkable feat by any standards.
But please do not try this stunt with your dog at home.
** A Jack Russell dog is stunning visitors to a farm by showing off his horse riding skills.
Freddie
leaps on the back of his neighbour's Shetland pony Daisy for a trot
around the paddock of Peglars Farm, in Flaxley, Gloucestershire. Owner
Patricia Swinley said the dog was a ' natural' jockey
whose equestrian skills have blossomed.
'When he first saw Daisy he rushed across the yard and just jumped straight on her back, 'she said.
Freddie, who has been nicknamed the Flaxley Flier,
is often to be seen riding round the 25-acre farm and Daisy, who stands at just 37 inches tall
provides the perfect taxi, for her pal.
'The children love to come and see him, 'Mrs Swinley said.
'I guess it is a rather peculiar sight.'
