A PET dog stolen from a garden in Blackburn has been reunited with its owners, police have confirmed.
An appeal was made earlier this week when Izzy, a black Staffordshire bull terrier, was taken from a house in the King’s Road area.
But the dog, missing since Tuesday, was located by the town’s southwest neighbourhood policing team yesterday.

CCTV footage was also released of a man, thought to be in his late 20s or early 30s, around 5ft 11ins tall and slim, who police wanted to speak to in relation to the original theft.
Anyone with information regarding this suspect can still call Blackburn police on 101 or Crimestoppers, in confidence, on 0800 555111.
