PET puppy Buster, who was stolen from his kennel in the garden, has been reunited with his owners.

The four-month-old American bulldog was handed back more than a week after a thief scaled the garden wall of the house in Branwell Court, Heaton, Bradford, enticed him with treats, put him on a lead and walked off with him, while his family was out.

Owner Khuram Raja said a man brought Buster to the house, explaining he had unwittingly bought him from a man.

Mr Raja, a 22-year-old student, said: "Buster hadn't eaten and was in a really bad state. He is putting on weight and is happy. I am just glad he is back home."
