There is a screen shot in pets lost and found nationwide on facebook, of an advert to sell a long haired chihuahua male in south Wales for 350£. The photo is a side shot but please check it out. I have a screen shot hut can't seem to attach here

Thanks Leah for ruling out Buster. Hope you get some positive news soon. Such an awful thing to happen, and the dog could well attack again. I'm surprised no one local has come forward with information about the possible identity of the dog involved as problem dogs are usually well known known by neighbours, friends etc.
Leah Harrison
I’ve updated with a more definite colour, also the BBC Midlands should be doing a story on Munchie hopefully someone out there must know something.
Leah Harrison
I have shown owner a photo of Buster was definitely not him did not have white on the face.

Still no sign of Munchie unfortunately
menaviana
any news?
Joan
Is it possible that the attacking staffy could have been Buster, missing for 2 years from same postcode? Could be still living rough in the area? Could owner have a look at the photo of Buster on this site to rule out any possible link?
Leah Harrison
Owner has been advised to speak to the local dog warden. We’re still currently appealing for information on cctv, I have contacted midlands bbc and itv and also capital fm
Leah Harrison
Police are aware

You say the dog also bit you - a dog bite needs to be reported to the police. Also local dog warden so can keep a record of it against that dog.

CROSS POSTED comment from owner:

I live in Sinfin Derby have just been walking my chihuahua and a ****** staff with no lead or owner in sight has just come along from no where and attacked my chihuahua and bitten me and has ran off with the dog in its mouth!!!

Please keep a look out if your from that area, I’m worried sick and walking the streets but no sign of either dog. His lead is still attached to his collar and he is a sandy cream colour x

  • If your dog is microchipped please let the microchip company know that your dog is missing and check that all details are up to date.
  • Owners targeted by a malicious hoaxer demanding money for the return of their dog should phone the police on 101 immediately and contact admin@doglost.co.uk
  • A photograph of your dog is essential for the website. If you have not already uploaded one, please do so by clicking on Update details. Alternatively you can email it to admin@doglost.co.uk quoting the dog's DogLost ID number: (147563)
  • Obtain a missing poster by clicking on View poster above. Posters are very important so start postering now!
