Stolen Daisy reunited with owners after eight years

One-year-old cocker spaniel Daisy was stolen from her home in 2016

A stolen dog has been reunited with her owners after eight years.

One-year-old cocker spaniel Daisy and three other working gun dogs were taken from garden kennels at their home in Mole Valley in Surrey in 2016.

Surrey Police was alerted on Tuesday after someone tried to update Daisy's microchip.

PC Laura Rowley, from Mole Valley Safer Neighbourhood Team, said there was "not a dry eye in the house" when the dog was reunited with her owners.

She added: "She recognised them immediately and stuck to them like glue."

Officers discovered Daisy had been rehomed "in good faith" by new owners who had been unaware of the theft.

One of the other stolen dogs was killed after being hit by a car as it tried to escape, officers said.

The two others, Tilly a black working cocker spaniel, and Storm, a patchy white Patterdale terrier, have never been located.

Officers have appealed for anyone with information about their whereabouts to come forward.
