A drunken cafe owner has been jailed for assaulting three people and pulling out a knife when he was stopped from walking a dog.
Colton Clark had given the dog to a friend but then said he wanted to keep it for himself and turned up at an address in Brentry, Bristol, demanding to be able to take the pet out.
Bristol Crown Court heard a fight broke out and the 23-year-old picked up the knife and assaulted a man and two women.
James Le Grys, prosecuting, said in July last year Clark bought Brook Muckley a dog which she kept with her mum Kerrie, Bristol Live reports.
However he turned up drunk at Brook's home on February 29 and asked to take the pet for a walk before a fight ensued when she said no.
Mr Le Grys told Bristol Crown Court that Clark grabbed a knife and headbutted both women.
When neighbour Matthew Brunt intervened outside the property Clark squeezed his testicles as they struggled but was restrained before police arrived.
Ramin Pakrooh, defending via Skype due to the coronavirus lockdown, said the women had helped his client in the past and he was very remorseful for what happened.
He said his client had a traumatic background and the incident amounted to an escalation in offences.
Clark, from Westbury-on-Trym, admitted assault occasioning actual bodily harm, affray, threatening with a knife and two common assaults on February 29 and was jailed for two years.
Judge Julian Lambert told him: "You are prone to offending with a temper.
"It's drink and drugs behind this.
"You took leave of your senses."
Clark opened his cafe after being awarded compensation from an accident and hoped it would be more than just a place to eat and planned to help those in need.
He previously told Bristol Live serving breakfasts, salads and sandwiches was his dream business.
He added: "I grew up in Southmead and was surrounded by a lot of crime.
"When I got this money I wanted to use it on something worthwhile."
