POLICE have said a dog has gone missing - and possibly stolen.
In an appeal on social media, police said that Percy, a small, brown rough-haired dog, has gone missing in the Wilton area near Thornton-le-Dale.
They said he has gone missing this afternoon, and added that a white, flat-bed pick-up truck carrying scrap was seen to slow down in the area.
They added: "Please contact 101 and quote job 259 of the 19th if seen/found. Thank you."
