One-year-old bulldog, Lady, and Lilo the eight-month-old pug 'disappeared' after they escaped through a hole in the fencing of the back garden of the Mackeys' home in Robinstown, Co Meath, on the afternoon of November 30.

Little Rylee was so upset she was asking Santa not to bring any presents this year - only her two beloved pets back to them.
