A hunt has been launched to track down a sun bather who was caught on camera allegedly ‘flinging’ her dog by its lead when it tried to hide from the sun on the beach.
Charlene Keightley, 30, said she was enjoying a day out at the beach in Branksome Chine, Bournemouth, on Friday when she overheard a woman shouting at her pet.
It was then that she claims she spotted a small Jack Russell-type dog ‘visibly suffering’ in the 29 degree heat – and trying to seek protection by hiding in the shadow of its owner.
