A bounty has been placed on the head of a who painted his dog to look like a tiger and left it to wander scaring people.

An angry animal rights group has placed a reward on the head of a man who painted a stray dog orange and black so it resembled a tiger.     

The incident happened in Malaysia. Persatuan Haiwan Malaysia, the Malaysia Animal Association, launched an appeal for information after the painted pooch was spotted walking down a street. 

The group has now called on members of the public to come forward with any information which could help catch the culprit. 

A spokesman for the group writing on Facebook said: ‘Help Animal Malaysia identify the location and who this animal belongs to.  ‘

A mystery reward awaits those who come forward with complete information on the incident.’ 

The dog was seen walking along a town street painted orange and black to look like a tiger. 

It is not known if the local authorities are involved in trying to track down the culprit. 

Laura Francis, on Facebook, said: ‘The dog’s face is sad, such a shame.’  

Social media user ‘Jessie Jye’ said: ‘The dog has to take a bath and have its coat shaved to get rid of all the chemicals. Sorry dog, remember the thug who did this to you.’
