Help! Trixie the pregnant Pekingese stolen with car

Owner left dog in vehicle with water.

Toline van Vuuren, 62, is devastated after her vehicle was stolen with her beloved dog, Trixie, still in the vehicle.

The red Toyota Conquest 1300 with registration number FKW189GP was stolen around 11:00 yesterday (July 13) at the corner of Tanner Street and Flemming Avenue in Krugersdorp West. Trixie is a six-year-old Pekingese and is heavily pregnant. Toline quickly stopped for an errand and left Trixie (with water) in the vehicle when the incident took place.

Toline’s friends quickly rallied around her on social media saying she is a kind-hearted person who is forever helping her fellow man, and was undeserving of the sad turn of events.

Anyone with any information about the vehicle or the dog can contact Toline on 079 095 3394.
