Thieves steal litter of seven cocker spaniels worth $4000 each
<p>The owner of seven cocker spaniel puppies and their mother have been left “utterly heartbroken” after the dogs were stolen by thieves during a burglary.</p>
<p>The litter of black puppies, which were valued at up to £2,000 each, were taken from a caravan in Tottenham, Cambridgeshire, between 1:30 and 2:30 pm on July 22.</p>
<p>Their mother was also taken from the caravan, leaving the family who owned the dogs worth up to £14,000 altogether, “heartbroken”.</p>
<p>This isn’t the first puppy theft as a number of similar incidents have occurred over the last three months in Cambridgeshire.</p>
<p>Last week Cambridgeshire Police urged the public to be on the lookout for the family of cocker spaniels and warned those who owned pets to be extra vigilant. </p>
<p>Detective Sergeant Ashley Ryan, of the force's southern burglary team, said: “The owners are utterly heartbroken and extremely concerned for the welfare of their dogs.</p>
<p>“I’m urging anyone who has been offered a similar looking dog, or knows someone who has, to get in touch.”</p>
