The 25-year-old admitted romping with his male Appenzeller, Blaessli since 2008.
He even wore the dog's collar to court in Liestal, Switzerland as a sign of affection and called it his "life partner".
Apparently, he was not faithful to it, as he admitted bedding two other dogs during his relationship with Blaessli.
He has been given a suspended eight-month jail sentence after promising to undergo psychiatric counselling, the Sun reported.
