Celebrity chef James Martin using 'protection dog' in London after past attack
Posting a picture of the Belgian Malinois, the dog was wearing a harness with a label attached reading "working dog".
Captioning the Instagram post, Martin simply wrote: "London", leading many to believe the chef was using the dog for protection.
Earlier this year, Martin revealed that his car was attacked by a group when its windscreen was smashed in.
He later added that, along with his car being attacked, two of his friends had their cars stolen while another was mugged, all in broad daylight in central London.
Previously writing on his Instagram: "So in a week, two of my friends' cars got stolen, one other mate got mugged, and now I had this happen all in broad daylight, all in central London.
"London is broken big time…next time I'm bringing the Mali's."
Reacting to the post, one follower of Martin commented: "So sorry this has happened to you."

Geezer Butler recalls seeing 'frail' Ozzy Osbourne at final Black Sabbath rehearsal
Bassist Geezer Butler has recalled how Ozzy Osbourne appeared "frail" at the rehearsal for Black Sabbath's final concert. Last week, a representative for the Osbourne family announced that the rock music icon had died at the age of 76. Just two weeks earlier, Ozzy had joined his bandmates, including Geezer - real name Terence Butler - drummer Bill Ward, and guitarist Tony Iommi, for a farewell spectacle held at Villa Park in Birmingham, England. "Then it was time for Ozzy to join us," he wrote in an essay for The Sunday Times. "I knew he wasn't in good health, but I wasn't prepared to see how frail he was. He was helped into the rehearsal room by two helpers and a nurse and was using a cane - being Ozzy, the cane was black and studded with gold and precious stones." Geezer went on to describe how Ozzy seemed to have little energy in the run-up to the show. "He didn't really say much beyond the usual greetings, and when he sang, he sat in a chair," the musician continued. "We ran through the songs, but we could see it was exhausting him after six or seven songs. We had a bit of a chat, but he was really quiet compared with the Ozzy of old." In addition, Geezer noted that the "strangest part" of the final concert performance was the "end". "Normally, we would all hug each other and take a bow to the audience," he explained. "But Ozzy was on his throne and we hadn't thought that out. What do we do? Tony shook his hand, I presented him with a cake, but it was such a strange feeling to end our story like that. I wish I'd had more time backstage with Ozzy, but wishes are redundant now." Elsewhere in the essay, Geezer insisted Ozzy had a "heart of gold" despite adopting the nickname "Prince of Darkness". "To me, Ozzy wasn't the Prince of Darkness - if anything, he was the Prince of Laughter. He'd do anything for a laugh, a born entertainer," he added.
