Dog-Napping Gang on the Prowl in East Wiltshire

Thieves Target Gardens and Kennels
The suspects have been ringing front doorbells while another tries to sneak in from the back, attempting to steal dogs from gardens, kennels, and back yards. Police urge locals to keep their pets indoors or ensure kennels are locked up tight.
