German Shepherd Manpol Theo was left with a bite mark to his head duing a violent arrest.
Shocking footage has emerged of the moment an offender on the run viciously bit a police dog around the ear and head.
German shepherd Theo was deployed by his handler after a suspect refused to surrender to police following a chase through Manchester.
Footage posted to social media page href="https://www.facebook.com/BullshireStrikesBack/" target="_blank">Bullshire Strikes Back shows the man bite the 6-year-old police dog after it captures him in the middle of the road.
The man had abandoned his car and led police on the chase.
The suspect is then seen repeatedly hitting and kicking Theo as he tries to break free of the dog's grip.
The footage then shows a second man arguing with Theo's handler PC Gareth Greaves and shouting at the suspect on the floor to "bite the dog's ear off".

Back up officers arrived soon after and the two men were detained.
Greaves said the tussle lasted around seven minutes - and the clip doesn't show the man kicking both Theo and himself to the floor.
