Husband kicked dog

My dog had some food my husband didn't want him to have so he kicked it away from the dog and the dog bit his toe. It all happened so fast I don't know if the dog meant to bite him or was trying to get the food. But my husband got very angry kept saying angrily " he f*cking bit me" and kicked the dog around 3 times so it wasn't just a reactive kick if that makes sense. He kicked him the first time.. The dog backed away then he had to walk towards the dog and kicked him twice more.
He is normally such an animal lover so I was shocked and I told him not to kick him.
He just kept saying "well he bit my fucking toe" I asked to see his toe and his toe wasn't even red. I don't know what to say.
In my head I feel appalled I know I would never do that ever. But I know I can overthink and react. The dog isn't hurt didn't whimper or anything but was obviously not liking it and backing away.

Hi Chickencuddle,

We're so sorry you're going through such a difficult time.

We can see you've had many helpful posts on your thread but we just wanted to add some links to organisations which can offer you a bit more support in real life.

Several posters have mentioned Women's Aid, so we thought we'd add a link to their webage - Women's Aid - information and support. We know they've helped many Mumsnetters in the past, in particular with the Freedom Programme, so please take a look at their website.

Here too is a link to Refuge's page - what about pets? It has information about the Dogs Trust Freedom Project and other organisations that can help in situations like yours.

We really hope you're okay. Flowers
