An appeal for information has been made as three 14 week old puppies have been reported stolen from the Rougham area. The red cocker spaniels were taken on Friday and the owners are said to be devastated.
Their owner, Gemma Wright said: “My whole family is absolutely heartbroken. My twin children already had an unbreakable bond with them, and they’re absolutely devastated.
“My husband and I are trying to stay strong for the children’s sakes but this is a horrible situation for everybody. It’s bad enough knowing our puppies have been stolen, and to think that strangers have been on our property while we were sleeping – we were only woken up by the dogs barking – is so upsetting. We feel violated and my children are struggling to sleep at night.”
The stolen puppies consist of two bitches and one dog. All are microchipped.
Anyone with information is asked to contact PC Dale Reynolds at Dereham Police Station on 101 quoting crime reference 36/7859/21. Alternatively, they can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
