Dan Osborne gets HUGE Rottweiler guard dog to protect his family after fearing they’d be targeted in raid
DAN Osborne has got a HUGE Rottweiler guard dog to protect his family after he revealed fears they’d be targeted in a raid.
The Sun reported earlier this year that the former Towie star, 29 had bought terrifying Tyson to put his mind at ease when wife Jacqueline and the kids were left alone in the house.
After buying their "forever home" back in March, Dan, Jac, 28, and their two daughters Ella, five, and Mia, two, finally moved into their £1.3m pad earlier this week.
And now it looks like they're fully protected as the tatted hunk was seen out and about with their new furry family member.
Dan and the Total K9 team - which supplies family and personal protection dogs - went for a walk around the block to show off his skills.
While the team looked like they meant business, Dan looked in high spirits as he played around with the pooch.
Dan expressed his concerns earlier this year after pointing out that their two adorable cockapoos wouldn't be able to protect them if they ever needed it.
He previously told the : "We've got two little tiny dogs, they're lovely and great for the kids, but then we're getting a third dog, which is a trained protection dog, a trained family protection dog."
The star - who is also dad to son Teddy from a previous relationship -admitted that he feels like he's in need of protection because of being in the public eye.
Due to being the victim of trolling over the years, he thinks he needs a bit of protection just in case anything did happen.
He added: "Trolling… I reckon in this industry I've had it the maximum level you can get. I've had my fair share of it."
Dan and Jac were first seen cuddling up to Tyson back in February - and he's certainly done a huge amount of growing over the past three months.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2017, travelled four hours to Driffield, Yorks., to see their little Rottweiler despite being in a national lockdown.
In the now deleted snap they cuddled up next to the pooch and wrote: "Look who we did an 8 hour round trip to go visit today."
In another photo Dan held eight-week-old Tyson, who is being trained by protection dog specialists Total K9 before "joining the mad Osborne house permanently".
The family also had another dog called Storm, but sadly asked Dan's grandpa and cousin to look after him as he kept destroying their house.
Earlier this week Jac showed off piles of clothes and boxes after they all officially moved into the pad.
