A 48-year-old man has been charged over the alleged theft of a car and blind dog from a Gold Coast home earlier this year.
Bowie, a beautiful tri-coloured Australian shepherd was taken alongside a grey 2022 Hyundai Tucson station wagon on July 5.
He was found several days later by police during a vehicle stop near Macksville, about 300 kilometres from his home.
The man was arrested at the scene in New South Wales, before an arrest warrant was issued by Queensland Police.
Police arrested the man once again last night after he returned to his Queensland home in Southport.
He has been charged with unlawful use of a motor vehicle and entering a dwelling and committing an indictable offence.
He is expected to appear at Southport Magistrates Court on January 11.
