I feel desperately sorry for the breeder, the puppies and the owners of the puppies.   I so hope these puppies are found very soon.

I am sorry to hear of thease litter's being stolan...(black and tan's are very Sault after i have been told)...If not cocker's Fieldys!!!

But don't you think that any member of the public that buys these pups will be scrupulous people(in there own wright)...As there will be No papers to go with these pups!!!!(that would ring alarm bells to me any way)And if they are good people they would pass on information to the police that these puppy (mite have been stolen)....My opinion only...

If i get to hear i will pass it on....Chris

There is now a substantial reward to help bring these puppies home.  It seems that the thieves left one of the puppies behind in the lane, either it must of escaped their hold and they couldn't see or catch it!

The little cav puppy snatched nearby by thieves on a motorbike/scooter was sold by the thieves but the new buyer saw the publicity and rang the owners.  Pup now re-united.  Would be good to see the missing 9 all returned safe too.

I'm hoping that everyone is thinking of other forums they can post on.  My brain is working on it. 

What sadness these people create who think of profits and not all the heartache..

There is substantial sharing through Facebook https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Stolen-Puppies-We-Need-Your-Help/239417752767707

Through them and Dogs-Lost there has been quite a lot of publicity but I was suprised no one beat me to the main walks round here.  I postered 3 principal areas and shop over the weekend and no one else had been in despite being within a stones throw of here :dunno:

I have added the facebook page to my facebook feed (im in scotland so not sure how much help it will be) but they may plan to sell them alot further away to avoid suspision. I really hope the pups are found safe and sound. Such a shame and there really is some terrible people out there

P.S 'All of these pups have been docked' Is that allowed now? Pups are like 8 weeks old?

They are working cockers and springers, Will who owns them is a successful Field Trial competitor and works his dogs.  However, without the right documentation, anyone in the know should be suspicious about thesepups offered without their documentation.

There has since been a litter of Dogue de bordeaux stolen nearby too and a lab puppy just 20 miles from the cocker/springer litters. Not saying there is a link BUT there seems to be a lot of puppies dissappearing at the moment.

I must admit I'm being extra vigilant walking mine and looking who is about when I'm walking!

Aww those poor pups - I would be careful also and make sure there isnt anyone watching where you live with the pup or that
Its terrible that people have to worry about these things

There have been a few puppies stolen including Dogue de bordeaux puppies and their mum! It's not too far away from me so have been extra careful when out walking.
