Russia - President Vladimir Putin is to spy on his dog — by kitting her out with a sat-nav collar.
The former KGB agent’s black Labrador Connie often goes missing in woods around his holiday home.
Putin wanted to know about the hi-tech collar when he spoke to Russia’s deputy premier Sergei Ivanov yesterday, just before the launch of a satellite navigation rocket.
Putin asked him in Moscow: “When can I get a device for my dog so she can’t go too far astray?”
Ivanov replied: “Collars will be in the shops from July 2008.” (more)
