A reward for the safe return of a much-loved family pet has been increased to £1,500.
Husky dog Murphy went missing in a suspected abduction by two men in Scholemoor Cemetery, Bradford, on December 4. There have been no confirmed sightings since.
Owners Andrew Smith and Puiling Ma, of Lidget Green, Bradford, originally put up a £300 reward for Murphy, which was then increased to £700. Former X Factor contestant Chloe Khan offered a further £300.
Celebrities including magician Dynamo, comedian Johnny Vegas and X Factor presenter Dermot O'Leary have all supported the family's appeals for information on social media.
Yesterday Mr Smith's daughter, Christie, said they had now had 31,000 likes on Facebook and the reward had been increased to £1,500.
She said: "Murphy is part of the family and he is much missed."
