Self-Proclaimed Dog Specialist Under Investigation for Dog Bite Attack

A man is under investigation after his Rottweiler mauled a toddle at a beach on Wednesday. He calls himself the “Dog Shaman” and has a website called "Good Dog – join the pack". The dog owners believe that he can rehabilitate dogs.

Yet the dog experts’ own Rottweiler attacked a toddler for the second time.

The man was walking his dogs when his Rottweiler attacked a two-year-old. The same dog mauled a four-year-old just last year.

On his website, it states: “James believes no one should ever be aggressive, hit or yell at a dog to correct its behaviour or stop it from doing something. 

Aside from his website, he also is a regular guest on the morning TV show Expresso on SABC 3 and on the Radio 702 Pet Care Line show. 

The man is not talking about the matter.

The young girl’s aunt was with her when the dog attack and explains what happened that day.

“When I turned back, I saw three Rottweilers. One grabbed Meeka and dragged her away. I immediately jumped to cover her face because I was so scared it would bite her there,” the victim’s aunt Liska October said. “The dog’s owner came and took the dog away. A lady who said she was a doctor came to help us.” 

The doctors said she had 11 bites with bruising. Thankfully, the dog missed a major artery.

The dog was taken to the city’s animal pound until further investigation.
