Thieves broke through fences to snatch the black and tan pups, believed to be targeted for illegal sale. The family, who wish to remain anonymous, say they are “absolutely devastated” by the loss.
Puppies Missing After Brutal Break-In
The litter vanished just hours after being left unattended. “The mother will be whimpering and scared. It’s absolutely awful,” the family said.
“They broke through our fences and we think they specifically targeted us knowing we had them. We didn’t hear anything but found them gone first thing this morning.”
Reward Offered for Safe Return
An urgent appeal has been launched with a cash reward to encourage the safe return of the stolen pups. Owners are asking anyone with information to bring the puppies to a police station in Kent or to contact Kent Police on 101.
