Prince William was taken aback by an enthusiastic Labrador during a visit to a school in Cornwall.
The Prince of Wales was greeting staff and students at Duchy College in Callington, when the lively dog, River, jumped at him while he was introducing himself to her handler.
Unfazed, the prince chuckled at the incident and continued to pose for photos and selfies with students hoping to see him during his walkabout.
Holly Rushton, the animal management programme manager, explained that animals visit the college to aid students in their animal management studies.

William participated in a crime scene investigation where students were examining an abandoned vehicle used in a burglary with a bag of trophies scattered across the floor.
When someone joked that it could be from Aston Villa’s trophy cabinet, the prince, who is a fan of the team, humorously responded: "There are a few comments I could make about that but I am not going to."
He also applied aluminium powder onto the side of a car to reveal a suspect's fingerprint.
During his visit, William also stopped by a student-run cafe on the campus and interacted with the students working there.
