A picture has surfaced online of a man grabbing and carrying a dog by its collar through Parsloes Park in Dagenham, East London. The incident took place on the 29th of March. Animal welfare and rights charity, the RSPCA, were alerted to the situation after a number of witnesses spotted the offender walking through the area and towards a car park. They forwarded on the photographic evidence and stated that they saw him enter a black BMW, still leaving the dog hanging by the collar. As can be seen in the photo and confirmed by RSPCA Inspector, Chris McGreal: "The man - dressed in a black hat, black jacket and dark-coloured jogging bottoms - was seen carrying the small white Spitz-type dog by its collar across the park".
