Police say that a Pomeranian dog was inside the truck when it was stolen, and that the vehicle had a large camper attachment on top of it at the time.

The camper has since been located by Shawnigan Lake RCMP. It was found off a forestry road near Kapoor Main in Shawnigan Lake around noon Thursday.

Police believe that whoever stole the truck removed the camper from the vehicle before driving away.
