Canines security

In China’s Guangxi Province, a cyclist is employing his dog in a bid to dissuade would-be thieves from stealing his bicycle, instead of using a chain and lock. When the man pops into a shop, he leaves his dog outside with his bicycle. The golden retriever patiently waits beside the bicycle, with a paw resting on the frame. Once the man returns and mounts the bicycle, the dog hops onto the rear carrier before barking to tell the owner he is safely seated. Local campaigners are working on providing the pooch with a more comfortable perch.
