Barking Up The Wrong Tree

Dog returned to rightful owner

A lady who was separated from her dog has just won a legal battle to get her 11 year old Jack Russell, Penny back.

Liz Hiorns had reported her dog as missing but the message was lost by the council and Penny was sent to a rescue centre and rehomed.

The new owners then refused to give Penny back. A legal fight began but the new owners decided to give Penny up before the court hearings started.

It’s good to see the dog back to its rightful owner, but it’s a lesson to learn; we must really take care of our pooches and always know where they are and what they’re up to.
