Shocking moment dog owner repeatedly kicks crazed animal as it mauls another pooch ‘after throwing its muzzle off when row broke out on the street’

This is the shocking moment a pet owner repeatedly kicked a crazed dog as it attacked another dog after a fight broke out in the street.

The fight, believed to have occurred in Irvine, Scotland, is said to have started with two people fighting before one of them took the snout off their dog.

Dramatic images on social media show a dog clinging to another “friendly” dog with its teeth as people crowd around trying to separate them.

The animals can be heard barking and whining before a man begins repeatedly kicking the crazed dog in an attempt to get it to let go.

Another man can be seen pushing a cane between the dogs in a futile attempt to separate them.

Speaking of the harrowing incident, one witness wrote in X: “He couldn’t let go of his jaw on the poor dog.”
