This was the bizarre moment a woman went into her back garden and found her pet dog - mating with a CHICKEN.

Cathy Dongon, 22, spotted her rampant four-year-old bulldog Charlie physically attached to the helpless hen.

She separated the pair and castigated them for the illicit tryst in her farm yard in Mindanao, Philippines, on June 1.

Cathy said: ''We just came out and saw them doing that. We were so surprised. I don't know what they were thinking about. It's wrong for them to do this''

Cathy pulled the hen away from Charlie, whose penis was inside the chicken's vagina.

She said that the chicken was a one-year-old Sasso breed while Charlie is a mongrel cross between bull dog and a border terrier.

Cathy added: ''In the future I'll be keeping the dog away from the chickens to prevent this from happening again. They would be some very unusual babies.''
