This is the moment a Pit Bull owner stabs another dog that is fighting his own pooch outside its home in front of its stunned owner.

The incident was filmed in the village of Naumovka in the south-western Russian republic of Bashkortostan while the alleged knifeman was walking his Pit Bull.

In the video, the suspect is seen walking on the other side of the road as the home owner’s pooch jumps over the fence to apparently attack the man’s Pit Bull.

As the pair fights outside the home owner’s gate, he ventures outside and appears to let another dog out to assist his other pooch attack the Pit Bull.

While the three animals scrap outside the gate, the Pit Bull owner appears with a knife in his hand and he appears to stab one of the home owner’s dogs in the back.

The two men exchange words before the knifeman calls his dog away from the property.

According to the unnamed home owner, one of his Cane Corso dogs, named ‘Cesar’, was injured in the incident and later died of the stab wound.

He explained that both dogs were unchained in the garden because he is waiting to finish their kennel.

The home owner told local media: “This neighbour who stabbed my dog has an aggressive American Pit Bull Terrier who he always lets outside without a muzzle.

“That day was the same, his dog was barking in the street and Cesar went after it in the street.

“Instead of trying to understand what was going on, he just took out a knife and stabbed my dog.

“His dog has attacked several people around here and the owner has been told many times to use a muzzle, but without any success.”

According to local media, Cesar later died from the stab wound and the owner has filed a complaint with the local police.

The incident is being investigated although it is unclear whether the Pit Bull owner has been arrested yet.
