Two other dogs were stolen earlier this month, with one still at-large.

“Bruno,” a 1-year-old French bulldog with black and white fur and a black collar, was taken in Northwest after a suspect brandished a gun and demanded the victim’s dog and property, before fleeing the scene.

“Pablo,” an Australian Shepherd puppy, was taken at gunpoint outside of a CVS in Northeast. Police were able to track down the puppy and reunite it with its owners. Seven people were arrested, with four suspects being later released.
