Appeal after three dogs stolen from kennels

Police are appealing for information after three dogs were stolen from kennels in a South Cambridgeshire village.

A pedigree White Maltese Terrier, female Sprocker Spaniel and a heavily-pregnant Jack Russell were all taken from kennels in the garden of a home in Cambridge Road, Wimpole, at some point between 3.30pm and 5.30pm on Wednesday 25 May.

It is believed a chain was cut to the main gates of the house and access was gained to the garden where the kennels are.

Sergeant Tom Nuttall, said: “The owner of these dogs is utterly heartbroken and very worried about the welfare of the dogs, especially given that one of them is heavily pregnant.

“I would like to hear from anyone with information about this theft.

“In particular, if anyone has seen these dogs for sale online or saw anything suspicious in the Wimpole area on Wednesday between 3.30pm and 5.30pm, I would encourage them to get in-touch with the police as soon as possible.”
