A pet dog has become a local celebrity in China for her ability to climb trees.
Owner Wu Jiang, of Yubei district, Chongqing, trained his pet, Tina, to climb by putting her toys in tree branches.
He says Tina, a purebred Belgian shepherd, loves climbing and can go higher than 10ft.
On her owner's command, Tina jumps up the tree, using her front legs to grab the trunk and her hind legs to push up.
She will climb up to her toy; grab it with her teeth and then jump back down, reports the Chongqing Evening Post.
Wu said: "I started to train her to climb when she was six weeks old by putting her favourite toys in trees.
"She would scramble up to get them so I kept putting the toys higher and higher to develop her climbing skills."
