Hero Dog Risks Its Life As It Scares Off Robber With Gun Who Targets Shop

This is the moment a brave and loyal dog jumps in to protect its owner and his business by tackling an alleged armed robber in his master's shop.

In the footage, the suspected would-be robber is seen racing into the off licence and as it is being shut up for the day shortly before 7pm on Friday.

With a Halloween mask covering their face and wearing all black, they appear to point a gun at the worker, who had only an empty bin with which to defend himself.
