Me too. But then I re-read the report and it doesn't actually say they were her pups.

Exactly my first thought too. I really hope the 10 month old isn't the mum of the pups and I hope they are all found safe and well.

Yesterday I read on another forum that somebody had come forward, having bought one of the pups without knowing it was stolen. So hopefully that will be a good enough lead for the police to find the rest and the thieves.

Good news all round. I really hope they are all found and that the thieves get their just deserts.

Post by: hblower on April 01, 2016, 08:02:49 PM: this is in the a village near us and I have heard that they were keeping the puppies in pens on their land not in the house or in secure kennels etc. In my opinion it is asking for trouble to be kept in a "pen" on farmland and surely it is cold for the puppies. we had hard frost that night.

I have to say I'm thinking the same.
