This is the distressing moment a dog groomer beat his own poodle puppy to death with a sandal to stop it from barking.
The animal worker, named in reports only by his surname Pan, carried out the distressing attack at a salon in Taipei City, Taiwan, in August last year.
Pan is now facing two years in jail and a £50,000 fine for the abuse, and ahead of his sentencing CCTV was released of the attack.
