3 Adorable Bush Dog Puppies Were Just Born at a Zoo in Arkansas
The litter consists of two males, Train and Bernardo, and a female named BeatrizNEED TO KNOW The Little Rock Zoo in Arkansas just welcomed three bush dog pups The litter features two males, Train and Bernardo, and a female named Beatriz Bush dogs are small canids native to Central and South America, and — despite their name — are more closely related to maned wolves than domestic dogsA zoo in Arkansas just got a little bigger! The Little Rock Zoo announced the birth of three bush dog pups in a Facebook post shared on Aug. 5. The zoo said the newborns are 'doing well and growing fast' and are 'under the watchful eye of their devoted parents and our animal care team.' The zoo also said that temporary 'puppy fences' have been installed in their enclosure to prevent the pups from wandering too close to a moat within the area. In a blog post shared on Aug. 7, the zoo announced that the litter features two males, Train and Bernardo, and a female named Beatriz. The pups' parents are relatively recent arrivals at the Little Rock Zoo themselves. The zoo announced the arrival of the pair several months back in an April blog post, sharing that they hail from France. 'Bush dogs are not commonly found in U.S. zoos — only four or five institutions house them nationwide, including Little Rock. When the zoo's last bush dog passed in September 2024, the team immediately began working with partners in Europe to identify potential animals to help re-establish a breeding pair,' the zoo explained in the blog post. The zoo ultimately found two 12-month-old bush dogs — Paku, a male from a zoo in Sables d'Olonne, and Luz, a female from the Parc Zoologique de Paris. They then began the long process of getting the animals to their zoo in Arkansas, which involved 'months of paperwork, health certifications, permits and international coordination.'

Luz and Paku finally arrived at the zoo in March, where they were ultimately introduced. The introduction 'went better than we could have hoped,' the zoo said at the time in its post. 'Luz, the braver of the two, led the way, with Paku closely following her around as they explored their new environment.' The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! Bush dogs are small canids native to Central and South America, per the zoo's blog. And despite their name, they are more closely related to maned wolves than domestic dogs. Bush dogs live in close-knit packs and are known for their cooperative hunting skills, which enable them to take down significantly larger prey. They are also strong swimmers and have partially webbed feet, allowing them to navigate flooded forests and rivers. Read the original article on People

From Bridgerton lookalikes to old dogs with new tricks: Sweet snaps show pups from all over the country as their owners come together for annual show
London 's best dressed pups have been pictured strutting their stuff at the highly acclaimed Greenwich dog show, featuring a Bridgerton theme for this year's popular event. The annual show, first held in 2023 and hosted this year at the Old Royal Naval College on May 25, see's hundreds of owners and their beloved pets travelling from all over the country to be reviewed by a panel of expert judges. Welcome to 'all dogs, big and small, well-behaved or wonderfully mischievous', the eight hour-long event marks a unique opportunity for pooches to showcase their extravagant looks while also enjoying a range of gourmet pet bakeries. The four-legged attendees competed in categories that included 'Waggiest Tail', 'Handsome Hound', 'Cutest Pup', 'Glorious Golden Oldie' and beginner-friendly 'Best Trick'. This year's brand new 'Best Bridgerton Lookalike' category, a nod to the Old Royal Naval College site which featured in the famous Netflix series, was bound to get heads turning and tails wagging, with some dogs pictured showcasing traditional French aristocracy wigs. Popular Scottish television presenter Jodie McCallum, well-known for her work on ITV2 and BBC Scotland, alongside The Great, Sense & Sensibility star Charity Wakefield, helped to crown the competition's top dogs. Alongside the contest, both the dogs and their owners were also free to enjoy a range of exciting activities that ranged from an Urban Food Festival and Artisan Market, to arts and crafts activities and even a dog-friendly afternoon tea. Now, sweet snaps have shown this year's competing pups in all of their glory, with dogs of all breeds soaking up the sunshine in an array of eye-catching 'fur-styles' that included poufy dresses, extravagant hats and even stylish suits designed especially for the male canines. Elsewhere, keen pet owners were also spotted embracing the 19th-century Bridgerton theme in all of its glory, with one owner seen walking alongside her Schnauzer, called Mr Darby, in a long white dress and traditional hat. A white fur baby was seen adorning a glamorous pearl necklace, while others showcased white veils. While some of the pups were more than keen to hit the catwalk, others seemed slightly more apprehensive, with owners pictured struggling to attach wigs to their heads, while others faced difficulty attempting to fasten fashionable bows to their young pooches. Giant schnauzer Mr Darbyshire took the first place crown in the 'Best Dressed Pooch competition. Pictured with her proud owner Tara Veitch, her four-legged companion adorned a suit. Meanwhile, French bulldog Charlotte, who picked up second place in the Bridgerton Award, was dressed in a traditional wig with a pink dress and matching lead. Gorgeous white and fluffy Finn took home first place in the Best in Show category. A prestigious award given to the overall winner of the competition, the prize acts as a culmination of all of the individual category winners and judges' choices. Promising an 'unforgettable day out for the whole family', Greenwich Dog show seeks to 'embrace the diversity of the canine world' and celebrate the 'joy, love and companionship that dogs bring to our lives'. With up to 30 dogs allowed to compete per class, entry to the infamous show is increasingly competitive, with participants, alongside spectators, eager to soak up the atmosphere of the fun loving competition. With free entry, but a fee of £10 to enter the competition, any profits made from the show went towards The Greenwich Foundation, a charity that seeks to conserve the Old Navy College site for future generations. Described as 'an extraordinary cultural destination ', the historical site has been a popular filming location for various productions, including the hit series Bridgerton. First released in 2020, the period drama follows the lives of the eight Bridgerton siblings as they seek to navigate London during the Regency era. With each season focusing on a different sibling's romantic journey, the star-studded cast features well-known names that includes Phoebe Dynevor, Regé-Jean Page, Jonathan Bailey, and Nicola Coughlan. The fourth instalment of the much-loved program is set to return to screens in 2026, while some reports have also suggested that Netflix could have bagged a multi-million pound investment to make both series five and series six.
