Police are appealing for information following the death of a family dog after it was attacked in Aberdeen.
The white and brown Jack Russell was reportedly attacked by a dark brown and black bull terrier-type dog in the Marchburn Drive area of the city on Tuesday evening.
Officers in Aberdeen are appealing for witnesses following the ‘traumatic’ incident, asking anyone who saw anything to get in touch.
In particular police are looking to trace two men seen in the area, one wearing a dark-coloured t-shirt and bottoms, and the other on a bike.
PC Brenda Adam, who is leading inquiries, said: “I am appealing for anyone who was in the area around the time to get in touch if they witnessed anything or have any information which could help progress the enquiry.
“In particular I would appeal for any details of two men seen in the area around the time, one wearing a dark coloured t-shirt and bottoms whilst the other was on a bicycle.
“This was a traumatic incident for those involved and I urge anyone with information – no matter how insignificant you think it it is – to get in touch.”
