Dim dognappers run away in terror after picking on the wrong breed
Harrison Jones Wednesday 3 Feb 2021 11:31 am
A pair of dognappers ran away in fright after a botched attempt to steal a Belgian Malinois a breed often used by police and the military.
Two men approached 30 kilo Nellie, and her owner Toby Currier, in Portsmouth last Wednesday.
Toby, 19, said one of the men made a fuss of the dog and the other asked questions about her, before making a sudden grab for her lead.
That did not go down well with Nellie, who her owner says is normally gentle but bared her teeth at the hapless pair before being restrained. Toby explained to The Daily Star: Nellie started barking at them and then lunged at the men. She almost grabbed one of them as they had clearly startled her.
