A Russian TV reporter found herself chasing a dog live last week after the audacious canine snatched her microphone from her hands and ran out while she provided a weather update, according to reports.
Mir TV anchor Elina Dashkueva sat with her eyes wide in the studio for a moment while reporter Nadezhda Serezhkina chased the golden retriever with the stolen equipment, Mediaite said.
Images posted on social media show the dog jumping in the air to grab Serezhkina’s microphone during his live shoot.

“It seems that we have lost connection with our correspondent,” Dashkueva told viewers as the station moved away from Serezhkina for the chase, according to Mediaite. “We will try to connect with her momentarily.”
Serezhkina and the apparently lost dog met on camera later in the broadcast – this time in a planned appearance, where she knelt beside the dog, who seemed much more docile.
The reporter said that no one was hurt in the incident, but his “microphone took a bite or two”.
She added that the warm spring weather in Moscow is perfect for walking the dog, according to the Washington Examiner.
