A dog has amassed millions of fans on social media. Gwenni the Working Cocker Spaniel has impressed users on TikTok who watch it follow commands in Welsh and English.

North Wales Live reports how its training progress has been shared on the social media platform by owners Carys and Sean since they adopted it as a pup in December 2020. The TikTok account - @gwennitheworkingcocker - has accumulated 178,000 followers, and the dog has racked up 4.5 million likes and one video has been watched more than 12 million times.

Working cocker spaniels are known for their energy and intelligence. And Gwenni certainly doesn't let the breed down as it learns tricks very quickly and performs them to perfection.
