Send a link to a friend

[February 11, 2010]  NEW YORK (AP) -- A Brooklyn woman said a mugger stole a doggie coat right off the back of her mild-mannered terrier.

Donna McPherson said she tied up Lexie, her 10-year-old Westie, outside a Park Slope supermarket "for two minutes" while she bought milk. She heard a "funny bark." When McPherson went outside, she found the little white dog shivering. His green wool coat, with leather trim and belt, were nowhere in sight.

McPherson said the dog coat was worth $25. She said that, fortunately, Lexie wasn't wearing his pricier Burberry.
