(PICTURED: The dog tries to bark at the swan in retaliation) - This is the dramatic moment a dog bit off more than it could chew when it came to blows with a family of swans. The black and white terrier was enjoying a swim in a pond at Watermead Park, Leics when it found itself dangerously close to a mother swan and her family of eight cygnets. And the unlucky dog got the shock of its life when the agitated mother began flapping its wings and violently hissing at the dog in a bid to scare it away from her babies. In a series of dramatic images the petite pooch can be seen struggling to keep its head above water, when it became submerged in the murky pond while barking at the swan in retaliation.
