We could all learn a little from Eco-Dizzy! I’m a bit jealous my pups don’t do their part for the environment, though they do have a thing for plastic bags/bottles and the such. Only difference is they like to eat them and make daddy’s house a MESS, instead of recycling them!! Dizzy is a recycling phenom, snatching up anything she can carry in her mouth (that can be recycled) and doing the deed for the environment.
“Beer cans, plastic bottles, cardboard and envelopes are carried to the family’s recycling shed in the garden. Dizzy, the two-year-old mongrel, even collects plastic bottles on the beach near her home in Newquay, Cornwall, and takes them to the nearest bin. “You cannot drink a cola or beer from a can because she wants it,” owner Emma Trebilcock said. “When we have barbecues we have got to ask our friends to have their drinks from glasses because she is there waiting for the cans. “She also carries our recycling bags and even tries to carry bin liners, but they are a bit too large for her, so she ends up dragging them behind her. “Sometimes we have to check our recycling bins to make sure she has not taken unopened mail out,” said 23-year-old Ms Trebilcock.
Dutiful Dizzy has also become something of a “domestic dogess” by helping out with the family wash and carrying socks in. Emma’s mother, Kim Makin, said: “We have never seen a dog like this. When we tell our friends and neighbors they do not believe it.” The eco-friendly dog with the low carbon paw print was given a new home and family when she spotted at the St Francis Home for Animals. A spokeswoman for the charity said it could not take any credit for Dizzy’s skill. “She was still a puppy when the family took her, so it must be down to them,” she said.”
