One litter of black and tan cockers and one of b/w and l/w springer spaniel pups have this afternoon been stolen from a gundog owners kennels whilst he was out training.

The pups are 8 weeks old and due to go to their new homes this weekend.

This was from the shropshire area.:-(

edited to add original post notifying us.
Hi all, ive just got off the phone and there has been 2 litters of spaniels stolen today.
The one litter is all black and tan Cocker pups, they are very few and far between.
The second litter are springers and have both L&W and B&W pups.
They are 8 weeks old and from Will Clulee's Kennels, fantastic pedigree's and were going to their new homes this weekend.
As you can imagine he is very upset and believes they were taken around 3:30pm as he was out training, if you can cross post or tell anyone who may be able to post it in other forums he would be very greatful.

Please spread the word on this theft! Area is Bridgnorth, Shropshire but could be advertised anywhere.
Let's get these pups too hot too handle!

That's dreadful. Where I live the guys that work spaniels and the like are a pretty tight community and word would soon spread. We'd all be looking out for someone trying to sell 'Dodgy' pups. Perrhaps it's the same around Shropshire and the ******s responsible are caught, I hope so, some of the lads I know wouldn't bother involving the police if they caught them..........The thieves would probably prefer that they did, retribution would be swift and painful believe me.

Get it on Facebook start a page.. If there is already one pop the link on here so them pups can be made so hot.. Lots of pets have been re united through people sharing the info.. xxx

Im hoping they are found swiftly..

I have made this suggestion to the chap who is helping the owner get the word out and about and offered to help them with it if needed. many thanks I have posted a note on my facebook and asked if my network of childminders across the country will help by reposting.

As springerpete says the gun dog people will be on the case and it is being cross posted across a variety of forums to help this guy and of course the many disappointed new owners to be.

Hopefully he has contacted Dog Lost etc. The local paper the Shropshire Star is pretty good at running stolen dog stories, as is Radio Shropshire, so if he hasn't done already they would be good people to contact too. Hope they turn up soon.

(from another Shropshire forum member on a different forum)

You really need to do a FB page, full on. It worked for the springer litter that was returned in Berkshire-massive publicity on Stolen puppies page on there.
