A dog which knows how to skateboard is learning new tricks - including horse riding and sailing.
Oscar, a two-year-old Jack Russell, started taking up extreme sports three weeks ago, after his owner bought a skateboard.
Charlotte Browne, from Goring in West Sussex, said that the dog saw the skateboard as a new toy and played on it every day.
"Whenever we try to take him for a walk he runs over to the skateboard. He won't let anyone else go on it," she revealed.
The streetwise dog jumps on the board to start it moving and even uses his paw to travel faster.
Since amazing crowds at the local seafront, Ms Browne said that she plans to take Oscar to a nearby skatepark, so he can try playing on ramps.
Ms Browne also told the paper that the adventurous dog, who could use some pet insurance with all his activities, sits on her saddle when goes horse riding and owns a life jacket for sailing trips to the Norfolk Broads.
Other pets that like taking part in sports include a snooker playing boxer dog, according to dailypets.co.uk.
