Not all media used the full video which concludes with a tipsy Amber Heard threatening the poor dog “Don't you scratch that glass one more time, I will hurt you”.
N.B. The Australian Government has been confirmed as investigating Amber Heard in October 2021 so this is a more recent memory than the Daily Mail acknowledge - and they did report this development. It is not an old incident but an on-going situation.
FROM THE DAILY MAIL:
Amber Heard names her new puppy BARNABY JOYCE - six years after the Australian politician threatened to kill her dogs during infamous trip Down Under with ex Johnny Depp
By MARY MRAD
Amber Heard has taken a surprising dig at her long-time rival, Australia's Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce.
The American actress, 35, and her Hollywood star ex Johnny Depp, 58, famously clashed with the politician back in 2015 after illegally transported their dogs into Australia.
On Monday, Amber made it clear she hasn't forgotten the bizarre incident, revealing that she's named her new puppy after Mr Joyce himself.
'Meet the newest member of the Heard family, Barnaby Joyce,' the star wrote alongside a photo and video of herself with the pooch next to her Christmas tree.
In April 2015, Johnny and Amber flew their Yorkshire Terriers Pistol and Boo into Australia, where the actor was filming Pirates of the Caribbean.
The transportation of their dogs violated Australia's bio-security laws as the couple failed to declare and quarantine them.
Authorities only became aware of the presence of Pistol and Boo when their visit to a Gold Coast dog grooming salon was made public on Facebook.
At the time, a fired-up Mr Joyce insisted that the dogs would be put down if they were not sent home to the US.
'If we start letting movie stars - even though they've been the sexiest man alive twice - to come into our nation [and break the laws], then why don't we just break the laws for everybody,' he said during an infamous press conference.
'It's time that Pistol and Boo buggered off back to the United States.'
Depp promptly sent his dogs home and a year later insulted Mr Joyce - who he called 'Barnaby Jones' by telling US talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live: 'He looks somehow, like, inbred with a tomato.
'It's not a criticism. I was a little worried. He might explode,' said the Hollywood star.
Mr Joyce hit back, saying: 'I think I'm turning into Johnny Depp's Hannibal Lecter.
'I'm inside his head, I'm pulling little strings and pulling little levers. Long after I've forgotten about Mr Depp, he's remembering me.'
Heard was charged with breaching Australian customs laws, but those charges were later dropped after she and Depp issued a bizarre video apology.
Amber filed for divorce from actor Johnny Depp and the pair became locked in a nasty court battle that played out earlier this year
