Police say a man was walking his dog along College Street about 12.30pm on August 30 when a white Land Rover stopped nearby.
A man allegedly got out of the vehicle, assaulted the dog owner and forcibly took his Staffordshire bull terrier before fleeing in the Land Rover.
Two men, aged 26 and 22, were arrested the following day.
The 26-year-old has been charged with aggravated robbery in company, while the 22-year-old has been charged with knowingly concerned in aggravated robbery in company, driving while disqualified and breaching bail.
