A reward has been offered for information leading to the return of 4 pugs that have been missing from the Valnord Hill area of St Peter Port since 29 March 2021.

Three of the dogs are beige and one is black. One dog is very distinctive as due to a birth defect it only has half an ear on one side. At the time of disappearing one of the beige pugs was heavily pregnant and due to give birth any day.

Do your neighbours suddenly have more dogs than usual, or do they have a new pug. Have you been offered a pug puppy in the last 2 months Have you heard an increase in dogs barking?
