Ceaser Emanuel from Black Ink Crew claims that the viral video of him abusing his dog was a set up and that his dogs are happy.
TMZ caught up with Ceaser who claimed that his dogs had been fighting and that he was just trying to separate them. Ceaser says that one of his dogs attacked him which is why he hit him with a metal chair.

VH1 has already fired him from the show.
“We have made the decision to cut ties with Ceaser Emanuel from Black Ink Crew New York,” VH1 wrote in a statement posted to Facebook. “Since next season was close to finishing production, this decision will not impact the upcoming season.”
Ceaser’s attorney Walter Mosley released a statement saying: “Ceaser is an avid dog lover and has many dogs and has had in his lifetime, many dogs and other pets. This was an unfortunate situation as I understand it, where there were a number of other aggressive dogs attacking smaller dogs and probably was a lapse of judgment as to how to appropriately break it up, break up that interaction.”
