Missing chihuahua Ralph is running scared around central Edinburgh

A dog owner is desperately searching for her missing chihuahua, which is running around central Edinburgh after escaping from her car.

Ralph jumped out of Chelsea Telford's car in Gilmerton on Wednesday evening.

The mother-of-two only noticed he was missing when she got home to Broomhouse later that evening.

Five-year-old Ralph has been running scared since then and has apparently been spotted near the Pleasance, a distance of roughly four miles from where he escaped.

He was seen near Cameron Toll around midnight.

Chelsea said Ralph will be terrified and is urging anyone not to approach him as he will likely run away.

She said: "I'm just worried in case he has been hurt. I'm so scared in case something has happened to him.

"He will be very, very scared, he's not very friendly with other people."

Ralph is black and white with a bald stripe on his back.

Chelsea has asked anyone who has seen him to call her on 07432 229008.
