The 25-year-old claimed ‘the dog started it’ when officers asked why he was barking at the K9 dog in a patrol car in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Police said he appeared ‘highly intoxicated’ at the time.

Officer Bradley Walker wrote in his incident report that he heard the dog barking uncontrollably inside his patrol car while he was investigating a crash at a pub early on Sunday morning.

‘Timber responded as trained and started to bark,’ he said, adding that he tried to confront Stephens but he walked away and ignored commands to stop.

After being told by officers that ‘deliberate teasing would result in the (dog) responding aggressively and that response could potentially injure the (dog)’, Stephens was released to a bar employee who promised to drive him home.

He will appear in municipal court on April 21.
