He walked off with the canine from the location near to the Cash Convertors and Cash Generator shops.RSPCA Animal Rescue Officer Mike Man said: "This incident took place in a busy retail area of Blackpool not far from Blackpool South Station and the Promenade so it is likely it was seen by a number of people.

He is of medium build and he was wearing jeans and a hooded top.
