Jeremy Bieber, father of pop megastar and teen idol Justin Bieber, flew into a fit of rage recently and threw their adopted dog off of a balcony in their Canada home.
According to entertainment news site TMZ, the American bulldog, named Karma, was adopted by the family about a year ago, but it turned out to have some behavior problems that have proven to be an annoyance. But after the dog bit Justin’s little brother Jaxon, their father apparently had had enough and angrily tossed the dog off of a two-story high balcony. Luckily, the dog fell into a deep snow bank and was unharmed.
The elder Bieber returned Karma to her previous owner/trainer Trevor Dvernichuk. But now, after Dvernichuk began telling people that the dog had been abandoned, Jeremy is claiming that the trainer stole the dog and is demanding it be returned, and has threatened to call in the police.
Dvernichuk says he fears for the dog’s safety after the angry outburst and assault, but says he’ll return Karma rather than get into trouble with the authorities.
