A?DOG owner from Widemouth is appealing to the owner of another dog to come forward following an incident on Saturday.

Mrs Sarah Jeffery's Collie, Jasmine, known as 'Jaz' sustained serious injuries on Saturday requiring an emergency vet to be called.

Jaz was being walked at Widemouth by Mrs Jeffery's sister-in-law because her owner had had major surgery three days' earlier. Jaz had also undergone surgery recently.

The other dog, a Jack Russell, which the owner, a man in his 60s, had put on a lead as the Collie and its walker approached, attacked Jaz.

No one realised the extent of the injury at that moment and the man walked off with his dog, but it transpired Jaz had had a piece six inches by four ripped off her.
