Woman spends £26,000 to get her dog back after ex's nightmare girlfriend took it

A woman has been reunited with her beloved pet pooch after he was taken by her ex-husband's then-girlfriend. Aimee Dodd, 43, has spent more than £26,000 to get her Siberian husky Atlas, back into her arms, following an 18-month court battle that she finally won.

Aimee's former husband had agreed to look after Atlas as a favour while she was moving house, but his new girlfriend got involved - and refused to hand the dog back when the time came. Heartbroken Aimee endlessly tried to communicate with the woman, then had to endure a horrific civil court case to retrieve her fur baby.
