Security measures at President-elect Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Florida, have been significantly increased following his victory in the US presidential election. The U.S. Secret Service has confirmed that robotic dogs, marked with 'DO NOT PET' and referred to as 'high-tech hounds,' are being utilized to patrol the perimeter of the estate. Video footage shared by Reuters shows the Boston Dynamics creations walking alongside agents. Additionally, armed boats have been deployed to guard the surrounding waters. These enhancements come in the wake of previous assassination plots, including one allegedly linked to Iran, underscoring the heightened security concerns surrounding the President-elect.
