ROBOT DOG IN MEXICO TEACHES ANIMAL KINDNESS ON THE STREETS
Bangkok Post
|August 20, 2025
He walks, he talks, he runs and he plays. He’s Waldog, an Al-powered robot that is making the rounds in the northern city of Monterrey, Mexico to raise awareness about animal abuse and welfare.
With a metallic, friendly voice, Waldog is about the size of a beagle and initiates conversations with children and adults about animal rights.
"Hi, I'm Waldog, and I'm here to give a voice to those who don’t have one, the animals who live on the streets," he told one group of laughing residents in the low-income neighbourhood of Santa Catarina in Monterrey on August 8.
