Police in Houston are searching for a man wanted in connection with a dramatic dog-napping and assault.

It happened on Nov. 4 when a couple entered the Bully Kamp pet store and said they wanted to buy a puppy priced at $10,000.

As Bully Kamp's Alize James went upstairs to grab paperwork for a nearby UPS driver, the couple left the store with the dog.

Surveillance cameras caught the couple leaving, and James bolting after them. She said her only concern was the 7-month-old bully, who just had surgery days earlier and needed special medication.

Police in Houston, Texas are searching for a man wanted in connection with a dramatic dog-napping and assault. A pet store employee tried to stop the vehicle with the stolen puppy by jumping on the hood and it was captured on video.

"My mind is focused on her health, I obviously didn't care about my well-being," James said.

James chased the couple to their car and demanded they give the dog back. Instead, they hit her with the car, then threatened to run her over.
