Belle Hassan wants Anton Danyluk to meet her dog before they make their relationship official, after being dumped from 'Love Island'.
Dog lovers and fans of all sorts of ugliness mingled together on the grounds of the Petaluma Fairgrounds just north of San Francisco for the most anticipated event of the Sonoma Marin Fair - the 29th annual "World's Ugliest Dog" contest. Despite stiff competition from some of the most unsightly canines in the States, Martha, a slack-jawed Neapolitan Mastiff with cascading rolls of excessive skin, was crowned winner of the 'World’s Ugliest Dog' competition.
Dog lover Sofia Kalinina seems to have created her own extreme dog sledding sport in her home city of Rudny, Kazakhstan. The 79-year-old dog fanatic sits down on a flimsy cart with four wheels as her two dogs pull her around on the sidewalk. Kalinina, aka 'the dogs' mother', has rejected more traditional forms of transport and relies on her trusty canines to scoot her around the city on sunny days. Kalinina was formerly a dog handler and so is well experienced in how to handle her two Giant Schnauzers, Rachel and Bony. According to Kalinina, giant schnauzers are sometimes used for police service, so she feels safe with them because they can protect her if she runs into any trouble. Perhaps Sofia may even want to become the first octogenarian dog sled street racer.
Founder of Boston Dynamics Marc Raibert showed off one of his latest robotic creations in London on Monday, called Spot Mini, a four-legged robot with a mechanical arm mounted on its back.
