    Dog shows off amazing parkour talent

    A Ukrainian dog has become an unlikely internet star after footage of his gravity-defying free running skills hit cyberspace.

    TreT, a Staffordshire Bull terrier, impressed his owner Evgeny Elchaninov as a six-month-old puppy by jumping onto a chair and from there onto the top of the fridge.

    Evgeny, himself a keen parkour athlete, was entranced by his pooch's skills and immediately began encouraging him to pull off all manner of tricks, from running up and around vertical walls to springing from object to object - tricks he pulls off gleefully with tail wagging and tongue hanging out.

    Crufts it ain't: this being the Ukraine, there are a few more ageing Soviet monuments involved (including an eye-catching tank) than you might expect, but the dog's talent is undeniable. Taking the dog for a walk has never been more fun.
