A family is putting up a £500 reward for the safe return of their pedigree pooch.

Bonny the Bichon Frise was last seen near her home in Bradford's Westgate Hill area at tea-time on November 14.

Since she disappeared, her owners have been sticking up posters and searching for her at animal shelters and at vetinerary surgeries across the city - they have even been in touch with the Council's dog warden service.

"It's awful not knowing if she's safe, we need to know. We've exhausted all other inquiries, asking Telegraph & Argus readers for help to find her was our last resort."

The family will give £500 for Bonny's safe return.

"She means so much to us," said Carol Wilcock whose husband Terry bought Bonny as a first birthday present for their daughter Juliet 11 years ago.

"Bonny loves Christmas, she gets so excited. It won't be a happy Christmas without her."

Anyone who knows Bonny's whereabouts should call the Wilcock family on 07918 716038.
