Toronto police say two dogs that were stolen at knifepoint in the city’s Yonge-Dundas area last week have not been located.
In a news release issued Thursday morning, police appealed for information on the robbery they said occurred on Sept. 1 at around 11 p.m.
Police said two dogs were being walked in the area of Yonge and Dundas streets when the victim was approached by a man and a woman.
The man then pulled out a knife and took the victim’s dogs, police said.
One of the dogs is a golden brown Shih Tzu named Mari that was in a stroller, while the second is a black Scottish Terrier named Yurield.
Toronto police added that the dogs require special food and medication because of allergies.
