Proud dad Li Wan doesn't mind if people think he's off his trolly, after creating this bizarre carriage for his daughter pulled by the family's pet pooches.

Li - from Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, eastern China - created the carriage five years ago from an old pram, a baby buggy and trimmed it with a collection of soft toys and plastic flower buds.

But judging by the rather inscrutable look on his eight-year-old daughter Wen's face, it may not be getting too many more outings.

"I think she is a bit embarrassed by it now but it is so beautiful I don't want to give it up," sighed Li.

But daughter Wen said diplomatically: "I'm quite a bit bigger than I used to be when I was three and I don't want to be a burden to the dogs."
