A man has been banned from owning a dog for seven years and has had four of his pets taken away after he pleaded guilty to having a dog dangerously out of control in a public place. Leyion Charles-Bain, 64, of Military Road, Northampton, was also given a one-year community order by the town's magistrates.
Yes, it’s the replacement mutt for the bloodsport breed enthusiast who doesn’t want an XL bully any more, because of the hassle of compliance with restrictions. The sort that a man half his age would find it difficult to control.
Police said Charles-Bain had been walking two cane corsos - a large, muscular, mastiff-type breed - on The Racecourse, a park near the town centre, on 6 March 2025 when they had attacked two other dogs. Charles-Bain's four dogs were handed over to the police for rehoming.
For ‘rehoming’ in a vet’s incinerator one hopes…
Meanwhile, in another county:
A dog owner was found dead days after his two pets were put down after being visited by police. Arminas Jakubauskas, 34, was discovered dead at his home on Northgate in Lowestoft on Saturday. Lowestoft Police had said before Mr Jakubauskas’ death that officers attended his home in the town on Monday, June 22 “due to safety concerns raised by the owner of two dogs”.
Suffolk police said the dogs “were assessed to be dangerous and a risk to public safety” and were sedated by specially trained officers before being taken to a vet.
The statement added: “The dogs, with the permission of the owner, were then euthanised.”
And the family dispute this, of course, scenting compo the way a cane corso scents a delicious toddler…
The Lithuanian national who lived alone was described by his sister, Eglè Jakubauskaitė, as “a lovely man who always had a smile on his face”.However, Ms Jakubauskaitė, who lost contact with Mr Jakubauskas on June 24, believes her brother wouldn’t have allowed his dogs, Brisius and Merė, to be killed.
“We have also been told that it was publicly stated that he had requested for his dogs to be euthanised.
“Our family believes this is not true. He loved his dogs deeply and could never have wanted this to happen.
The claim is going to be that the cops bullied him into it, no doubt. That’s already the claim from the ‘ae, poor doggies’ crowd on social media, naturally.
“The loss of his dogs had a profound impact on his mental state.”
Ms Jakubauskaitė explained that the family believed that the events surrounding their euthanasia contributed to his poor mental health, which ultimately led to his death.
He sounds just like the kind of unstable, easily-led individual who shouldn’t travel been put in charge of powerful and aggressive mutts!
