She continued:

“I turned around and caught him around the back of Bengal dynasty where I disturbed him and confronted him but I highly presume he was going to beat the dog again”

“The police have been contacted along with the RSPCA I do have a video also but I won’t post due to language. Please share this.”

The status update was posted onto the North Clwyd Animal Rescue closed forum page which has around 8500 members.

Within minutes outraged animal lovers from all over Wales had reshared the post to all their friends.

Comments followed thick and fast, all expressing disgust at the alleged mistreatment of the animal, interestingly one commenter recognised the man from a similar incident in Queensferry last week and posted a screen grab of a comment made last Friday:
