This story is about Chihuahuas - no joke!

There are so many spare Chihuahua's in San Francisco that they are being flown to New York, where they clearly have a dearth of these remarkably unappealing creatures.

The charitable airline transporting the 15 microdogs is good old Virgin America - well done to them.

"The massive overpopulation of Chihuahuas in California is forcing animal shelters on the West Coast to look to shelters on the East Coast for help - where there is demand for the dogs," says Virgin America.

The Chihuahua airlift is being organised by the City of San Francisco Animal Care and Control and the rehoming is being done by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
