A Surprise Guest Co-Host

News anchors get trained to deal with almost anything that can happen on-air. That includes presenting and conversing with possible co-hosts to make the show more enjoyable. However, Russian anchor Ilona Linarte was not oriented if the surprise co-host should turn out to be a dog!

While Linarte was delivering the daily bulletin, a friendly Labrador Retriever appeared out of nowhere and joined the live broadcast. Viewers got startled as she suddenly screamed and jumped up after seeing the dog. The footage went viral almost immediately, and let’s hope they’re now more prepared in case a similar scenario occurs again.
