SAN RAFAEL – Police in San Rafael released surveillance photos of two people suspected of stealing a therapy dog in training last week.
"Buddy", a Cavailer Poodle mix, was taken from the 1000 block of Fourth Street in the city's downtown on Friday. The dog was being trained by a local nonprofit.
Photos released Monday show two women with the dog. One of the suspects had the dog on a leash, while the other followed.
