The Russian president has been given a puppy by the leader of Turkmenistan as a birthday gift.
Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov presented Putin, who has just turned 65, with the little pooch at a meeting in the Russian Black Sea resort of Sochi.
Putin previously received an Akita named Yume from a Japanese official and a Bulgarian shepherd named Buffy from Bulgaria’s leader in 2010.
Right?
The little pup is a rare breed too – am alabai, a Turkmen shepherd dog.
And just look how cute it was when Putin put it down on the floor.
