Police are asking for the public’s help identifying a man accused of robbing a woman and not only getting away with her car, but also her dog.
The carjacking happened at a gas station in the 900 block of Westheimer Road at Montrose Boulevard on Wednesday, Jan. 1.
In an update a week later, the Houston Police Department Robbery Division released a surveillance photo of the man they are calling the suspect. He’s described as a Black male with a long beard. He was wearing a dark-colored short-sleeved shirt and black pants during the robbery.
The car and dog — a 9-year-old half Maltese, half Papillon named Isabella — still haven’t been found after they were stolen on New Year’s Day.

ABC13 spoke to the victim, Chelsea Vogler, after the carjacking.
“I know she misses me,” Vogler said of Isabella.
Isabella is more than just her pet. She’s an emotional support animal who’s been with her every step of the way for nine years.
