    A shocking animal protest displaying a 'dead dog being roasted on a stick has left Henley Royal Regatta attendees 'stunned'. The daring stunt, which revealed a lurcher dog 'being cooked' under a banner that read 'The Great Dog Roast', occurred at the Henley Royal Regatta at Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, yesterday (3 July). The prestigious rowing event, attended by celebrities and royalty alike, attracted crowds of 300,000 spectators - and many were left 'horrified' to see the unusual delicacy: a dog roast.

Viva!’s founder & director, Juliet Gellatley, said: “This Viva! stunt pushed boundaries and had the desired effect of shocking thousands of people into facing the reality that eating pigs, cows and other animals isn’t so different to eating dogs.

Liv Nightingale, 23, was "baffled" after her partner, Ryan, 25, dropped off a bag of pregnancy essentials for her at Worcester Hospital.
