COPS are investigating a professional dog-sitter after FIVE pooches vanished on her watch.

The missing dogs are eight-year-old pug Pablo; half-blind pug Charlie, three; Jack Russell Maggie, six; five-year-old pug Ralph; and French Bulldog Brindle Jack, 18 months.

CRYING ALL THE TIME

Jack’s owner James Egan, 60, who left him with Louise for the first time while he and his wife went away, said: “Something doesn’t sit right.

“Jack is the only one worth anything. We’ve looked at the CCTV where the dog walker said she parked but we can’t see her.

“The missus is crying all the time. It’s horrible.”

Pablo and Maggie’s owner Becky Parsons, 39, said: “This is my worst nightmare.
