Walter is an 11 year old deaf Yorkshire Terrier who lives in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles with actress Tricia O'Kelly. Walter was also dognapped. He was held for 5 days and a ransom demand had been made. He was being held for $1,000. The dognapper also demanded the actress make fake reward signs.
