Shocking moment out-of-control dog attacks police horse as owner just watches

AN out-of-control dog savaged two police horses in a five-minute park attack yesterday afternoon. The two officers screamed for the owner to put the hound, thought to be an American Bully breed, on…

Dreadful, but this is now the third thread started on it. Please can we keep it all together.

Just seen it, what hope do we have if this happens to police officers. Let’s hope the owner is identified and prosecuted

 

[skinnydipper]

Upsetting and hard to watch.

 

[blackcob]

It says the dog was removed by police, do we know if the owner was identified or arrested?

First one I’ve seen, some of us don’t venture much out of AAD.

Same. No forum police needed here!

Same here. Hope the horse is ok, physically and mentally. I presume mounted police don't carry tasers ?

 

[Clodagh]

I just looked at it briefly, how absolutely terrifying. Actually I thought the horses injuries might have been a lot worse, while acknowledging they are more than bad enough.

I'm with the neighbour who called the owner a knucklehead !

 

[CorvusCorax]

I don't really go outside of AAD either. What a knob, though.

 

[SadKen]

The owner is a ****. He thinks it’s fine. The Mail comments are full of ‘dog licences, permanent on lead and muzzled will solve this!’ Except it won’t because you, me and everyone who is responsible will do it, and those who don’t give a fig for the law won’t. Just like today, where this **** let his dog savage two horses, he doesn’t care about the law that already exists, and people who own dogs like that generally don’t. The rest of us have to pay.

Everything about this story is enraging. I wish one of the horses had kicked the dog and the owner straight to hell. In real terms, I wish the dog was taken from him, cost 5k to get back, and if he didn’t pay in a week pts. Sue me. I’ve had enough of this.

He really doesn’t sound like the brightest spark. And I suspect that cute photo of Coco was not taken in the same time frame. Idiot.

 

[Clodagh]

Has he got the dog? Or do the police have it?

The article says the dog is in police kennels

I thought that, but then SadKen confused me. Easily done.

Should we all "search" before we post anything?? What harm if there's 3 threads..

It just keeps it all together. No need to search. Currently when refreshing 'What's New' this is being discussed in threads 2, 7 and 9.

I tend to go straight to AAD.

 

[Smitty]

It's absolutely shocking. I don't have a problem with PTS the pair of them.

 

[Smitty]

Ooops, was going to delete that but why is he talking to see the papers. Surely he should be under arrest for something, I don't know what, damaging police property at the very least or something.

If his dog attacked your animals I think the police would not be interested. Hopefully they’ll step up as it’s one if their own.

I rarely use the 'what's new' function!!

Because the Press doorstepped him and he's not bright enough to say no, I am assuming.

Absolutely agree. Dog dangerously out of control? Surely to god that’s in the Dangerous Dogs’ Act?

 

[Roasted Chestnuts]

Both he and the dog need PTS, watching that I wish the horse had squashed it. Once the dog got a taste it was never going to stop. Yes it’s on the owner to control the dog blah blah it get that I’ve had dogs all my life but after watching that I’m enraged. Hopefully he will get prosecuted and banned for life from having a dog.

 

[Bellasophia]

In Italy that dog would have been tazered or shot.
Do uk police not carry above weapons.?

Knuckle dragger more like.

In London where this happened the police are if anything a bit overenthusiastic with tasers however i wouldn't have thought mounted police would carry them as horses are used for for general or crowd control rather than disarming or arresting an individual. Police don't ordinarily carry guns in the uk and given how close it was wouldn't have been safe to use.

Hope the horse recovers well.
