A father has staged a one-man protest against new XL Bully laws by wearing a muzzle and guzzling a pint through a straw at his local pub.

Eamonn Mcgeady, 51, and six-month-old dog Lexi wore matching protective guards on their visit to the Straw Hat, in Ellesport, Cheshire.

Once inside Eamonn sat down at the bar, ordered a pint - and drank it through a straw, while other punters looked on, giggling.

His daughter Elle, 19, said he did it to make a point about new legislation on the breed - and left her feeling proud.
