An animal lover who jumped into a river to save a drowning dog ended up in hospital when the ungrateful dog bit him on the face.
Reece Taylor, 27, was cycling back from the gym at 6.30am when he heard someone shouting for help.
Bentley, an Italian cane corso, had fallen off the side of a boat and into the water.
Reece said: "I could hear the man saying 'please help, my dog is going to drown'.
"When I was growing up my mum was like the local animal shelter – we had dogs, cats, rabbits, a pet pigeon, turkeys. Any animal we had it.
"I knew I couldn’t cycle past and not help.
"I just stopped my bike, stripped down to my undies and jumped straight in."
Reece eventually managed to help lift Bentley onto the side of the boat but was bitten above his eye by the frightened dog and needed stitches in his eyebrow.
Reece said: "If I had cycled past and saw the dog drown in the river I would never have been able to live with myself knowing I could have helped."
Owners Jade Lanigan and Jacob Williams were on a boating holiday with their son Jamie and were moored at Norwich Yacht Station on the River Wensum.
Jacob had tried to save Bentley but his weight kept pushing him underwater.
After Reece saved the day, Jade said: "Reece was just so happy to see the look on our traumatised faces that we had our very heavy dog back.
"We want to thank the brave young man with all our hearts."
Rapper Kanye West has disclosed that he allowed his addiction to porn to destroy his family.
On Thursday September 1, the Donda rapper stated on Instagram that he enjoys watching x-rated movies, a practise that led to the termination of his marriage to Kim Kardashian.
Addressing Victoria Villarroel, Kylie Jenner’s former assistant in his Instagram post he wrote;
“Don’t let Kris make you do playboy like she made [Kylie] and Kim do.
“Hollywood is a giant brothel Pornography destroyed my family I deal with the addiction instagram promotes it Not gonna let it happen to Northy and Chicago.”
The snap of Villarroel was one of many the rapper uploaded on Thursday. West also shared various text messages via Instagram that seemingly discussed where his children — North, 9, Saint, 6, Chicago, 4, and Psalm, 3, whom he shares with Kardashian, 41 — would go to school.
He called out his former mother-in-law, Kris Jenner, as well as Hillary Clinton, Mark Zuckerberg and Charlamagne tha God, who he has feuded with in the past.
In his first post, West greeted “Hilary” and “Mark” telling them that they were “gonna take me off Instagram.” He also wrote, “My kids going to Donda / They not going to [their school] / Charlemagne the God and Kris / get your motherf–king popcorn.”
In a second post, he shared a screenshot of his text messages where an unidentified person (presumably Kardashian) asked him “to stop.”
“No, we need to talk in person, you don’t have a say so of where the kids go to school. Why you get say say? Cause you half white?,” he responded.
Amid their conversation, she told him that her mom was asking him to “please stop mentioning” her name.
Since 2019, West has been publicly slamming Kris for allegedly trying to “lock him up.”

A video of a New York Police Department officer punching a woman in the face during an arrest has gone viral after being shared online.
TMZ reported that the incident occurred on August 12 in Harlem. A group of officers were spotted in the middle of a crowd, attempting to arrest a man in connection with an attempted murder.
As the scene became chaotic, a police officer was seen trying to push a woman away from the crowd, and she shoved him back. This made the police officer punch the woman who then fell backward to the pavement.
This left those at the scene shocked and one man was heard yelling at the cop, "Why would you do that?!"
It's unclear if she fell unconscious, but moments later the cops had her up on her feet and put her in handcuffs.
Reacting the controversy that trailed the video, the NYPD described it as self-defense. The police department said “while police were effecting the arrest, multiple individuals on scene interfered by physically assaulting numerous officers. One officer sustained a minor injury to the head.”
Two women reportedly ended up charged with assaulting an officer, resisting arrest, and obstructing governmental administration. One of them was additionally charged with menacing and harassment, and a third woman was accused of spitting at an officer.
It's unclear which of those women is the punching victim from the video. As of now, NYPD has not announced any discipline for the cop.
Women are now requesting that jewellers make accessories out of their partner's semen.
Amanda Booth, who is a jeweller and a sculptor, has started to accept intimate samples from women to make jewelleries for them.
She only started using semen in the mixtures after posting a "joke" about it on Facebook and realising there's actually a market for it.
She began by testing the process using her husband’s semen.
She explained that she mixes clay with semen, dehydrates it and turns it into powder before incorporating it into a piece of jewellery in clay bead form.
She said that she uses semen, breastmilk and people’s ashes to make items also.
She told VICE: "Fresh samples are one thing, but when they've been in the mail for a little bit, I mean... it smells like semen, you know what I mean?
"We process them at the end of the day, otherwise we're sitting in the smell all day and it's just... We did it in the morning one day and it was just like, 'No, I'm never doing that again.'"
In a recent clip posted to TikTok, Amanda revealed a bunch of semen samples in see-through zip lock bags in her fridge.
A lot of Amanda's customers are from social media. They send off their semen to be made into a wearable item for "kink" reasons.
"After researching further into the Jizzy Jewelry shop, we both thought it would be the ultimate ‘you are mine’ type ‘collar’... It would be our little secret and inside joke," one of Amanda's clients told VICE.
Espy, another client of Amanda’s, admitted that she and her husband commissioned a "pearl" pendant as they wanted something that symbolised their dominant and submissive parts of their relationship.
One customer ordered a bass fish sculpture with her husband’s father’s ashes and a thumb ring and bracelet with her husband’s semen.
