A Labrador has become the first DOG in the UK to join the fight against air pollution - by recording pollutants near ground level.

Bagheera - Baggy for short - wears a pollution monitor close to her collar so she can take recordings close to the ground.

Her research has helped identify concerns that babies and toddlers may be at most risk of lung problems as it found air pollution was worse closer to ground level.

This video was filmed 11th February 2020.
