Doggy day-centre popular in Brazil

Dogs in the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo have a special place to go when their owners are at work - a doggy day centre.

Lots of people in the city have dogs, but need someone to care for them when they're out.

So dog fan Raquel Hama decided to create a day centre where workers could leave their dogs.

There are lot of activities for the animals - swimming pools, treadmills, personal trainers, fresh meat and vegetable meals and play areas.

They even get a wash and dry each day so that they're smelling their best!

What's more, if their owner misses them they can have a peak of what they're up to - live images from cameras installed throughout the centre are available online.

The day-centre is very popular with 70 furry friends coming through its doors each day.
