Summary
Seamstress Claudia Vogel is looking for her boyfriend, Alfons, when she befriends a small stray dog. When she returns home, she is murdered by an unseen assailant. The next morning, Hoffmann and Herzog find the dog but they don't know that they've got the only witness. It's up to Rex to tell them.
The Good
The actor playing Alfons does a good job as the ex-alcoholic boyfriend and he has some good scenes with Kunz. The little dog is adorable and a nice contrast to the much larger Rex. It's an enjoyable episode.
The Bad
Sometimes the scenes with the little dog are a little too cute but it's forgivable.
