Speaking about the incident, John told the ECHO: “As we were coming towards Leasowe Bay I saw a woman on the left. I didn’t take much notice, but I saw that he had a number of dogs and that two were bigger than the others – I thought the biggest were Irish Wolfhounds.

“One of the Wolfhound-looking dogs looked up and looked directly at Pud. He shot at her like a missile and the others followed. They were off the lead and Pud panicked and tried to leave. She makes five attempts. to come back to me, but the others interrupt her”.

He continued: “The big dog kept trying to bite his neck and back. I have no doubt that if he had reached her, he would have broken her.

“It was like watching a wildlife program when a pack of wolves kills a deer.”

John claims that when he tried to put Pud on the harness, the two larger dogs jumped on him, pushing him onto some boulders and causing him to cut off his head.

He said: “After I woke up, I told the owner to put his dogs on a leash because they are dangerous.

“I showed her the blood on my head and she told me to ‘f*** off’ and said her dogs didn’t do that.”

John added: “The beaches are full at the moment and it could have been a child. These dogs were like a wild pack and their master didn’t seem bothered by it.”

John, who claims he was left with a black eye, says he went to A&E for his injuries where he was told his thumb “looked broken”. He also claims that Pud has changed following the incident, now being “incredibly cautious” around other dogs.

John said: “I’m shaking after what happened. She’s so soft and gentle and loves to run. She sits on my knee to watch football.”
