A dog owner who claims he was told to give up his pet or face eviction from his home said "if they want my dog out, I will have to go too."
Ryan Janny, 28, said he was told by housing association, Plus Dane Housing, to hand over his one-year-old bulldog Tank to the RSPCA, as he was not allowed to keep the pet in his rented home in Kensington where he has lived for the past eight years.
But a Plus Dane Housing spokesman said the association was not asking for the dog to be removed from Mr Janny's home "at this stage" - but that the dog was suffering from a skin condition and they wanted him to seek treatment before it became a health hazard.
