--- Quote ---Russia has presented France with a puppy as a symbolic replacement for a police dog killed in the aftermath of the Paris attacks last month.

The death of the dog, called Diesel, during a police raid in Saint-Denis, sparked international sympathy.

The German shepherd puppy was named Dobrynya after a knight from Russian folklore.

He was handed to the French ambassador in Moscow, who called it an extraordinary gift.
