Nicola Bulley's dog could be vital in helping to trace missing woman, expert claims

An expert has claimed that Nicola Bulley's dog could be vital in helping to trace the missing woman.

However, Mr Tennant said that dogs cannot process what is happening if a human falls into a river.
He wrote: "If an owner is walking along the river and fell in, and went under, or the river carried them off, the dog
