Queens detectives say they are still on the hunt for two dognappers who made off with a pooch from a College Point home last month.
According to police sources, the 10-year-old female Yorkshire Terrier named “Chanel” was roaming the front lawn of a residence near 130th Street and 14th Avenue on Sept. 17, when at around 6 p.m. a man and woman approached the pup. The pair scooped the dog from the lawn and bundled it into a 2014 Subaru Forester.
The couple was last seen driving away westbound on 14th Avenue. No injuries were reported as a result of the incident.
“Chanel” belonged to a 47-year-old woman who was not with the dog at the time of the theft. The dog is valued at $1,200 and is being considered a Grand Larceny.

Surveillance images released by police appear to show the female perpetrator attempting to coax the dog while another image depicts the male suspect holding the dog in his arms before making their getaway. Law enforcement says that the owner does not know the individuals responsible.
Authorities are asking anyone who knows the couple or has any information regarding “Chanel” to come forward.
