Russian Gives Dachshund Scuba Lessons

Sergei Gorbunov is helping his dachshund Boniface do something perhaps no dog has done before: deep-sea scuba diving. Gorbunov, a professional diver in the Pacific Coast city of Vladivostok, Russia, had a diving suit—helmet included—made for the dog and is teaching him the ins and outs of scuba. In a recent demonstration, the dog emitted some high-pitched whines while submerged. “Underwater, I don't think he experiences any stress,” Gorbunov said.
