Owner Sophia Wiltshire, 29, was delighted to be reunited with Bear, a three-year-old black and white Lurcher cross. 

She told The Post: "We were so happy to see him again - but it was a mixture of emotions because of the state he was in.

"He was half his original body weight - which had dropped from 42kg to 26kg - and has lots of sores and scratches all over his body."

The other two dogs still missing are Yogie, a three-year-old white and tan Jack Russell/fox terrier cross breed and Peggy, a six-year-old greyish-coloured whippet/lurcher *****.
