Police say they are continuing the investigation into two dogs stolen on 8 June from their locked kennels in Hazlett Street, Clyde are seeking information from the public.

Arlo, a 19-month-old pure bred male bluenose Staffordshire grey coloured dog was stolen, along with his buddy called Wolf, a 13-year-old black Huntaway/Beardie cross.

Wolf was found around midday on 13 June, in a ditch on the side of the road with injuries which indicate he has been mistreated but is now at home recovering.

Arlo was found on the evening of June 17 on the side of Springvale road. He appears to have lost weight and now has a nervous disposition.

Prevention Sergeant Derek Ealson from Alexandra Police says “We think this is an awful situation. A person who steals a dog and mistreats it is a heartless criminal.
