Police in southern Brazil say a jealous husband hit his wife in the head with a pet poodle.
Insp. Thais Postiglione says the man picked up the dog and swung it into his wife's head twice because he suspected she was having an affair.
The two-kilogram dog died. The inspector says Carla de Camargo Oliveira suffered only minor bruises.
Postiglione says she cannot release the name of the alleged assailant because he was not arrested.
Officers decided the attack was not highly dangerous to the woman and he was not caught in the act.
But Postiglione said Wednesday that police are urging prosecutors to charge him with assault and battery and cruelty to animals.
