THE RSPCA is investigating a sickening video of a dog walker dragging pooches by their leads and throwing them into a home.
Shocking footage showed the professional handler appearing to manhandle three pets while taking them out in Totton, Hants.

Ring doorbell footage went viral on TikTok
Katrina Frampton claimed her friend’s Ring doorbell clip captured former British Army soldier Mike Johnston, of 3D Dog Training.
She posted the recording of the incident, which took place shortly before 7pm on May 7, on TikTok to warn other dog owners.
Mum-of-one Katrina, 33, told The Sun: “It just makes you feel sick, doesn’t it?
“I understand there’s accidents, but he’s a dog trainer as well as a dog walker.
“As a dog trainer, you know if they don’t have recall or aren’t obedient, you shouldn’t have them all out together anyway.
“He’s got dogs of his own as well, so that’s even worse. I think four or five dogs. He’s an ex-soldier.
“He’s saying that his customers are standing by him – I’m sorry, but that’s ridiculous.”
Katrina, from nearby Holbury, claimed Mr Johnston removed his social media accounts after the video went viral.
The administrator said one woman commented on her video saying she was no longer using his services after watching it.
On why she chose to share the footage, she added: “It was more so for the fact that we trust and pay these people to look after their dogs, and a lot of people don’t have home security and stuff.”
Mr Johnston left a Facebook comment claiming he “acted on impulse” and has “nothing but love for all animals I would not do any of the sick things that you are all assuming”.
He wrote: “This was the beginning of an evening walk. All four of these dogs have no recall, no general obedience and the bulldog can be dog reactive and will lunge and go for other dogs.
“Two of the harnesses, both the same terrible design, failed as all four pulled to get out of the front door. I had a split second to react as there was now two dogs off lead with no training.
“One dog had run to the end of the driveway and turned right. I acted as quickly as possible to avert any further potential complications.
“If the bulldog had run off and into the road or into the path of another dog it would have been much worse.

“I acted on impulse and got the three back inside the front door as quickly as possible. Unfortunately it looks bad but the fact is they were picked up quickly and placed down inside.
“They were not harmed or shook by the incident in any way. Once the three were safe, I closed the door over and proceeded calmly down the driveway to retrieve Bella.
“There is a lot of hate circling but there is also a lot of support from my clients who had the decency to call me and ask for the context.
“Knowing that there is absolutely no way I would have done that if I didn’t feel there was a need.”
He added: “This was an unfortunate and freak incident where I acted quickly and impulsively.”
Katrina claimed the incident had been reported to the police, local dog warden and RSPCA, which has launched an investigation.
A spokesperson for the animal charity said: “We’re unable to comment when enquiries are ongoing.
“We understand how frustrating that is for animal lovers but releasing information could prejudice investigations or could lead to us being fined.
“However, we would like to reassure people we will always investigate any complaints made to us about animal welfare.”
