A man who filmed his girlfriend having sex with a dog was caught out when he handed the footage in to social services.
Michael Smith, 64, filmed the incident between Gwen Kerr, 55 and his bull mastiff , Tank.
He later took the video to social services on May 27 last year, reporting concern for her welfare but found himself in court.
Smith denied aiding and abetting, counselling or procuring intercourse with an animal and a second charge of possessing extreme pornographic images , but was found guilty by jury after trial.
He was handed a suspended jail sentence for his role in the extreme footage.
Gwen Kerr pleaded guilty to having sex with an animal.
Mark McKone, prosecuting, said: "This defendant (Kerr) effectively had sexual intercourse with a dog.
"Mr Smith took a video film of that dog."
The court heard the video showed Kerr bent over a sofa as she manipulated the dog to have sex with her.
