As part of their austerity measures for 2013, Naryan-Mar Airport in Russia have trained a handful of dogs to perform day-time 'follow me' duties for aircraft requesting this service.

Airport director Vladimir Volnikov said "Our canine comrades have shown themselves wery capable in showing the aircraft where to park and, as a result, this year we expect to save over 30,000 Rubles by using these animals."
