PEMBERTON, N.J., Jan. 20 (UPI) -- A dog stolen with its owner's Jeep Cherokee outside a South Jersey convenience store was back home Saturday.
Princess, a 7-month-old mix of Pekingese and Chihuahua, was turned over to an animal shelter in Pennsauken by someone who found her whimpering on the street Friday, WCAU-TV reported. The shelter's name, Almost Home, proved prophetic for Princess.
Susan Fishman left the motor running when she stopped at a convenience store in Hanover because she did not want the dog to get cold. During the few minutes she was in the store, someone drove off in the Jeep.
The car thief remains unknown, but a security camera at the store taped the theft. The Jeep was recovered in Camden.
