Harvey the trampolining dog found

A dog named Harvey who used a trampoline to escape over a garden fence has been reunited with his owners.
Harvey disappeared from the back garden on Friday
The black and white Staffordshire Bull Terrier pulled off the stunt to bound to freedom at noon on Friday.
But after this week's publicity, his owner Laura Kidson, 27, received a call from the RSPCA on Tuesday night to say Harvey had been handed in to them at the weekend.
He has now been reunited with Miss Kidson, her four year old daughter Chloe and nine month old son Cole, who had been pining for him, at their home in York.

Miss Kidson, who works as a dispenser at Boots pharmacy, said: "We're delighted that he's back safe and well, but we're going to try and keep him off the trampoline from now on."
Three year old Harvey often joined the children and their other dog a Boxer puppy called Roxanne bouncing on the equipment in their garden.
Miss Kidson said: "The fence isn't all that high, but he couldn't get over it on his own and must have used the trampoline to bounce himself into my neighbour's garden and got out.
"He's something of an escape artist and he has got out before, but not for a long time and we were just starting to think he's stopped all that."
