Why has the woman's face been obscured? Is someone trying to protect her? If her face is shown, then people could recognise her, so that the police or OSPCA could visit her home and inspect the dog's condition carefully for bites or other signs of cruelty.
I watched the video carefully. The woman's behaviour suggests that she is mentally unbalanced. She keeps on shifting about into strange, hunched body positions and alternating between kissing the dog and biting and hitting him. My guess is that she has spent time in a mental hospital (perhaps schizophrenia) and has been recently released and got herself a dog for company. Of course, there is no harm in that at all, especially if the dog helps her recover. BUT - and it is a big BUT - abusing a dog in this way is quite unacceptable. The initial response of the police was too soft by far, but at least they appear to be taking the matter more seriously now. Thank goodness for the internet, where such events get quickly and widely publicised, forcing the police and/or OSPCA to take the matter seriously.
This lady could seriously hurt that poor dog one day, away from the public gaze. Let's hope that the situation is properly resolved by the authorities.
