His master says, if he sees a floating bottle, he'll jump in and grab it in his mouth. [Photo: Suzhou Evening News]

After swimming ashore, the dog deposits the bottle in the trash can, and then obediently waits his master's orders. He turns a lot of heads, and is very popular with passers-by. [Photo: Suzhou Evening News]

The dog picks up at least 20 or 30 bottles every time he goes out. Over ten years the dog has 'recycled' more than 2000 bottles. [Photo: Suzhou Evening News]
