Officers have reunited a golden retriever puppy with her rightful owners after she went missing from Cirencester.
The 10-month-old pooch called Bluebell went missing from her owner's garden yesterday morning, Wednesday 16 March.
Her owner posted an appeal on Facebook to try and locate the missing dog and from that information was provided and then given to police.
This afternoon, Thursday 17 March, officers attended an address in Bourton-on-the-Water in the Cotswolds and located Bluebell inside the property.
A woman at the address, aged in her 30s, was subsequently arrested on suspicion of theft.
Enquiries are ongoing to establish how Bluebell ended up there and the woman remains in police custody.
PS Antony Mee and PC Daniel Rugg had attended the property and PC Amy Priest (pictured below) then reunited Bluebell with her ecstatic and thankful owners a short while later.
