The family is now offering a £5,000 reward for the safe return of Blake after launching a social media campaign to find his captor.
Blake is six and a half years old and was last seen wearing a red collar.
He also has distinctive back paw which has an extra toe.
Kirsteen said: “We will pay that to anyone who brings him home as long as they are not responsible for his disappearance.”
Police are investigating the incident.
