Chelski manager Jose Mourinho has been arrested and cautioned after a row with the police over his pet dog.

The Blues boss is understood to have rowed with officers who wanted to put his Yorkshire terrier in quarantine following fears it had been taken abroad and back to UK, without jabs.

A Scotland Yard spokesman said officers went to an address in central London at 7.45pm yesterday with an officer from the Animal Health and Welfare Service.

A police spokesman said: “A 44-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of obstructing police and was taken to a west London police station. “He subsequently received a caution for obstructing police.”

The Sun reports that The Special One was attending Chelsea’s player-of-the-year awards when he was called to his home, by his wife Tami to tell him the dog was being taken away.
