and live on Freeview channel 276
On Saturday, Venture Photography on North Street in Leeds was treated to a visit from show jumper Duo, his human family and four legged friends Reggie and Vinny.
Duo arrived at the studios in his horse box and had just a moment of being "camera shy” outside the studio before being tempted inside by a huge bucket of treats.

"Venture Photography had done all the necessary research for his safety and security and even prepared a 'cardboard carpet' so he didn't slip on the reception floor and even had everything cleared out of the studio so he could acclimatise at his leisure,” the statement read.
"Being a true pro show jumper, Duo is used to flashing lights and crowds of people (all five of us!) so he took every moment in his stride and behaved brilliantly- ears forward and happy.”
The moment caused quite the stir with the locals, many of whom stopped to take a photo of the unique sight.
