Chihuahua snatched by seagull still alive 'in garden with water' - says psychic

A psychic has shed light on the whereabouts of a chihuahua that was snatched from a garden by a seagull.

Becky Willoughby, who once tracked down a missing skunk, reached out to the dog's devastated owner to share her vision with her.

She told Rebecca Hill, 24, that she could see her beloved pooch 'in a garden with a water feature'.

Ms Hill is desperate to be reunited with her four-year-old pet, called Gizmo, after he was picked up by a gull in Paignton, Devon, on Sunday.

She told The Sun : "Anything is worth a try and she has a really good track record.

“She found a missing skunk and missing cats and dogs so I’m just hoping she can help me find Gizmo.

“She said she can see him in a garden with a water feature, maybe a pond and that he is alive and has a sore eye."

A search is now being conducted in the gardens and roads surrounding Ms Hill's home in a bid to find her pet.

The mother said her daughter is now scared of seagulls, following the brazen kidnapping.

Ms Hill's partner told her he saw a seagull take the dog, which has led many eagle-eyed residents to keep their eyes open for the "psycho" bird.

Some believe that the seagull may have eaten the chihuahua whole, with dog expert Wayne May claiming that it was entirely feasible.

'Animal communicators' from all over the world have been in touch with Ms Hill since Gizmo's disappearance made front page news.
