An engineer urinated on his ex-wife's vegetable patch and stole her pet dogs when they split, a court heard today.
Ben Campbell, 40, is accused of stalking Dr Hollie Hearfield, 39, during a five-month campaign of harassment last year.
Magistrates in Wrexham were told the couple had been married for 11 years before splitting 'acrimoniously.'
On July 24 last year Campbell allegedly trashed Dr Hearfield's vegetable patch at her home in the pretty village of Gresford, near Wrexham, north Wales, by urinating on it. He is accused of returning to the property three days later to steal her black Labrador, named Hercules.
Campbell, a former company director, of Higher Lanes, Iscoyd, near Whitchurch, also allegedly stole his estranged wife's other pet, another dog named Persephone, in October.
