A missing Jack Russell dog has been returned to its owner in St Albans.

The male dog, which is two and half years old, was found a day after it was reported he had been stolen from a garden shed in Dellfield on Wednesday, March 5.

He was found after a woman recognised similarities in a photograph of a dog featured on a LostDog website, which looks to reunite lost pooches with their owners.

Yesterday The St Albans & Harpenden Review reported that St Albans business 123 Floors, in London Road, was offering a £1,000 reward for the safe return of the Jack Russell.

The business said this offer is now "non applicable" because they made the offer of a reward a week after the dog had been found.
