Macron's dog relieves himself near fireplace at Élysée Palace

The French president's two-year-old dog Nemo has been filmed cocking his leg against an ornate fireplace in his gilded office during a meeting with junior ministers. In the video, Nemo is seen relieving himself behind them as they discuss inner-city investment. 'I wondered what that noise was,' says the junior minister for ecology, Brune Poirson. 'Does that happen often?' asks Julien Denormandie, a junior minister and long-term Macron aide. Macron laughs and says: 'You have sparked a totally unusual behaviour in my dog.' Nemo is the first French presidential pet to come from a rescue centre
