Kira the 'dolphin spotter' gets up close and personal with a pod of dolphins in the waters off the coast of southern MozambiqueA black labrador dubbed the 'dolphin spotter' has been filmed frolicking with a pod of dolphins in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of southern Mozambique.
The adorable pup, Kira, chased after her sea friends in the underwater footage, captured by a group of ocean revelers.
The dolphins seemed to accept the furry intruder and obligingly swam around the dog, who was eager to join the finned creatures as they slid gracefully through the water.
