Moment professional dogwalker wrestles an out-of-control German Shepherd to the ground after it broke free from its owner and mauled his wife

• Paul Jennings, his wife Sasithon and their dog Cody were attacked on April 8
• The incident in Kingston-Upon-Thames saw attacking dog maul Sasithon’s calf 

This is the moment a professional dogwalker wrestled down an out-of-control German Shepherd who attacked his wife and his terrified dog.

Paul Jennings, his wife Sasithon and their Beagle Cody were walking on the pavement in Kingston-Upon-Thames on April 8 when a German Shepherd attacked them after escaping from its owner.

Sasithon tried to protect Cody by jumping in front of him when the other dog bit her leg.

CCTV footage shows Paul tackling the biting beast to the ground and holding him there until the owner arrives, who leashes her dog and walks off.

Sasithon was taken to A&E by an ambulance, where she was treated for the bite to her calf, and the couple called the police, who haven’t been able to locate the dog’s owner even three weeks after the incident, much to Paul’s frustration.

He told the Mirror: ‘We don’t think she should face criminal charges but people who have powerful dogs need to have some training or they should have some kind of licence.

He added that the owner had no harness with the dog, which was the ‘bare minimum’ for dogs unless they were well trained.

Sasithon said the situation would have been much worse if the dog bit a baby or child instead of her leg.

She said it was instinct that made her jump in front of her dog Cody, as she didn’t want him to get bitten.

Paul put an appeal on Facebook and has been notified of three sightings of the woman and her dog, with some reporting the dog had a muzzle on.

He said he was scared for Cody and only realised he was wrestling the attacking dog when he watched the CCTV footage. 

The dog owner hasn’t come forward, neither has someone who knows her.

Police said they were aware of the incident and while no arrest has been made, enquiries were continuing.
