Dog owner tormented by sick hoax calls after beloved pet disappears

A bereft dog owner who is still searching for her lost pet two months after he disappeared says she is still receiving sick hoax calls. Katie Wright, 36, says people are still ringing to tell her her beloved Bucky had been killed.

The pooch vanished from a street in Rubery in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, on Thursday, June 9, and has not been seen since. According to Katie, who is currently expecting a child, the dog was repotedly seen being "chased by a man" the day after and had been "possibly stolen".

In the days after his disappearance, neighbours formed a search party for the tan-coloured border terrier. But pranksters who noted Katie's number from dog posters have been making sick calls about the pet, reports BirminghamLive.
