Early Friday afternoon two District 1 RCMP and an SPCA officer went to the home to look into the welfare of a dog.
A 57-year-old man at a home in Upper Mills became violent and assaulted the SPCA officer.
When police attempted to arrest him, he resisted and physically assaulted one of the police officers. The second officer stepped in and the man was eventually taken into custody.
He was later released on a promise to appear and is expected to face charges of assaulting peace officers and resisting arrest.
