The other dog, a nine-month old Japanese Akita, was taken in the Seacroft area.
But it was recovered shortly after by the owner.
The Wildlife & Rural Crime Team also dealt with a number of other issues.
This included: 11 dog-related incidents (such as bites and loose dogs), four loose farm animals and one loose horse.
There were also three incidents described as "other".
A spokesperson for the team said: "As always there may have been things that have been reported direct to local wildlife officers that may not be included on this report."
