A family are heartbroken after their beloved pet dog was picked up "like a rat" and killed by a boxer-type dog.
Harley, a miniature Jack Russell, was not even two years old when he was fatally attacked while out on a walk in Tameside, Greater Manchester, on Friday afternoon.
The family-of-three - who did not wish to be named - consists of a mum, dad and teenage daughter, reports the Manchester Evening News.
