Essex County OPP say a fourth dog has been recovered, almost two months after being stolen from a property in Lakeshore, Ont., outside of Windsor, but three dogs remain missing.

The seven dogs, all beagles, were reportedly taken in “the early morning hours” of June 5 from an address on Lions Club Road.

Within three weeks, two of the beagles were located in separate areas in Windsor, where police say they were abandoned by the suspect or suspects.
