Pugh, who is trained in Krav Maga, said “instinct took over” when he found them attacking his 17-year-old son and his 20-week-old puppy.
The father-of-two said the men kept shouting: “Where’s the money? Give us your money!”
Pugh said “I was getting dizzy. I took quite a few blows to the head.”
Their dog Zeus had been found afterward, thrown in a canal and left to die after being hit with a machete on the head. Zeus is expected to make a full recovery.
After 10 minutes, the gang gave up and retreated with no score.
