My dad then rang the police and, shortly after, four policemen arrived in two police cars. The policemen walked slowly towards the dog but seeing the dog was very vicious, backed away to call for backup.

Two more policemen then turned up with a long stick that had a loop on the end of it. After about ten minutes they caught the dog but, just as they were getting close to the van, the dog escaped.

The four policemen all ran after the dog but it was too quick for them and got away. The dog escaped through a hole in the fence at the back of the school. The policemen then gave up and packed up to leave.

The following day, a Monday, everyone was in school as usual. The dog was running around the entrance to the school. Our head teacher, Mr Grout, ran after the dog with a lead, attempting to catch it. Unluckily he came back empty-handed.

At the end of the school day, the dog warden turned up and also failed to catch it. By Wednesday the dog had gone across the train track and out of our village.

On Thursday it was said that the dog was already six miles away on the other side of Ashford. The dog wardens are still after it but it has not yet been caught.

You never know, maybe the dog will turn up at your school next…
