Scruff, a 13-year-old border collie, has been amazing local residents who have dubbed him the 'eco dog' as he does his bit for the environment in Nuneaton, Warks. The intelligent pooch loves nothing more than picking up plastic bottles during a walk and his owners soon realised they could turn his playful antics into a positive. So David Grant, 48, and wife Yvonne Faulkner- Grant, 47, began taking along a bag to put his collections into to take along to a recycling centre. Scruff began by scooping up 40 bottles during his first month in January and has now retrieved more than 1,000 over the past year. David and Yvonne first noticed Scruff had a fascination with picking up plastic bottles about a year go but would drop it when he found the next one.
