A seagull swooped down and snatched a chihuahua from the garden of a home in England over the weekend, right in front of one of its horrified owners, the woman is claiming.

Becca Hill’s 4-year-old pup, Gizmo, was outside her home in the seaside town of Paignton in Devon, southwest England, Sunday afternoon when the sea bird suddenly dived, grabbed the tiny dog and flew away with it in its beak, Hill told DevonLive.

“My partner was in the garden putting the washing out at the time, and suddenly he saw it swoop down,” Hill, 24, told the outlet. “It carried Gizmo a fair way, as we couldn’t see him anymore. I have no idea if he was dropped or where he is now.”

Hill initially shared a desperate plea to Facebook for help in the hunt for Gizmo but removed it after online bullies made light of the incident, said a local search team, UAV Lost Dog Search & Rescue, to The Sun.

“Please, please, please [if] anyone finds a chihuahua, he’s mine,” Hill had posted, according to the outlet. “A seagull has [taken] him from my garden….Have a really upset 6-year-old missing her dog.”

The local search group said Hill “removed the post due to unnecessary trolling and hateful and spiteful comments where people were making a joke of the situation.”

So the organization took it upon itself to get the word out.

“Anyone who lives in the surrounding areas in Paignton please can you keep your eyes open,” the search group posted. “Gardens, rooftops, trees, under hedges etc. all need looking at carefully – many thanks.

“It is unknown if Gizmo may have been dropped,” the “Lost Dog” flyer said.

Gizmo was still missing on Monday, Hill shared on Facebook — but even that post was no longer visible on her page by the afternoon.

“My baby is still missing, the post said, according to The Sun. “Doesn’t feel right not waking up to him licking my face.”

She also shot back at the trolls who called her story fake news.

“Are you all f—–g stupid, my partner has seen a seagull swoop down and take him! It’s happened before.”

Hill, who owns three chihuahuas, told DevonLive she’d heard of similar incidents happening before, but she never thought one of her pets would be the target.

There have been several recorded incidents of birds attacking small dogs in the area — including one in May 2015 when a Devon pet owner watched her chihuahua puppy being mauled to death by a flock of seagulls, according to the report.
