AN Edleen family is heartbroken after their little dog escaped when they were attacked by another dog.

According to Jade de Pontes, Cleo, a 10-month-old Jack Russel, managed to escape from her harness around 6.30pm on Monday evening. Out of fear she ran into a veld at Con Amore School.

“Cleo is my younger brother’s dog and he is heartbroken,” she said.
