Dog learns kick-boxing

Moscow - A former world champion kick-boxer is training his dog in the martial art.

Russ Williams says 15-month-old Ringo Tsar can deliver a knock out punch with his paws.

He's been training Ringo, a Russian terrier, at their home at Caerwys, north Wales.

Mr Williams, who runs his own kick-boxing school, told the Daily Post: "I started thinking that he will grow into a large strong intelligent dog.

"So why teach him, as most dog handlers do, to bite? I decided to teach him to jump up on command and kick with his two front legs.

"I have been training him for weeks now and he will jump and kick on command to either punch bags or someone holding a kick pad."

Russian black terriers, also known as Russkiy Tchiorny Terriers, were specially bred in the former USSR and originally used for riot control. -- Ananova News
