Everyone knows recycling is a good thing to do, but not everyone does it. Sometimes, it's just too hard to drag your body to the recycling bin down the block when that trash can is right there -- ready to take it all in.

But over in Bodmin, England, one boxer takes his recycling very, very seriously.

Paris is a 9-year-old boxer pup who was recently taught how to pick up litter by his owner. His owner has been documenting his activism on Facebook, and his progress has been remarkable.

They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks, but Paris would beg to differ. She'd also like to ask you to pick your plastic bottles.

She's your pup, not your maid!
