Little pugalier dog Troy is back in the arms of his best pal Parker after being dognapped from his Sparcells home.
The six month old puppy, a cross between a pug and a King Charles cavalier spaniel, was stolen from his home in Fyne Close on Wednesday morning – breaking the heart of three-year-old Parker and his parents.
The thief crept into the family home and stole the pup along with other items before making a getaway.
Yesterday the Adver ran an appeal for information and luckily a reader spotted the puppy and called the police.
Mum Claire McCrory, 21, said: “We have been crying all morning – we are just so thrilled.
“If it wasn’t thanks to the Adver running the story and the kind stranger calling the police we may never have seen him again.
“My little boy ran downstairs hoping to see his little friend and started crying when he was not home, then we got a knock at the door and it was the police with Troy.
“I am just so grateful and we are not letting him out of our sight ever again.”
The drama unfolded after an Adver reader saw our appeal and later that day saw a man with a puppy matching Troy’s description in a car in Wootton Bassett.
After contacting the police, the man was found hiding in the loft of a house in Wootton Bassett clutching the puppy.
A man was arrested.
