Dog stolen from Newark found 200 miles away after appeal

A stolen dog has been found 200 miles away from his home in Nottinghamshire.

Boy, a one-year-old German Shepherd, disappeared from his owner's land at Girton near Newark-on-Trent on 30 November.

The owners contacted missing animal charity Beauty's Legacy, which traced him to the Southampton area using his microchip.

Charity founder Lisa Dean said: "The owners were over the moon. The whole family had missed him so much."

Ms Dean said Boy lived on a farm and had freedom to roam.
