A man has been reported over the alleged theft of four dogs including a champion Lakeland Terrier from a back garden.

A group of three Lakeland Terriers and one lurcher, worth up to £600 each, were allegedly stolen from a back garden in Kiklandneuk Road, Renfrew on Sunday, January 3. Police Scotland said the owner was left "extremely upset" by the theft.

A 22-year-old man has been reported to the procurator fiscal in connection with the incident. One of the Lakeland Terriers has been recovered but the three other dogs are still missing.

A statement from Police Scotland said: "Further to our previous appeal regarding the alleged theft of four dogs from Renfrew, please note: a 22 year old man has been reported to the procurator fiscal in connection with an alleged theft.

"An 18 month-old Lakeland Terrier has been recovered and returned to her owner. Enquiries continue to locate the three other dogs which are still missing."

The champion dog is described as a six-year-old Lakeland Terrier with scarring on his nose.

The second dog is a five-month-old Lakeland Terrier with a distinctive black stripe running from his eyes to his nose.
