I live in Faughart, Dundalk. Ireland. On Saturday, between 3pm and 4.15pm I had a litter of 7 3 week old German Shepherd puppies stolen. They were unweaned and we now fear for them as time has passes. Where I live is right on the border area, 6 miles from Newry in Northern Ireland and 5 miles from Dundalk in the South of Ireland. I am 1 mile into the south of Ireland. My neighbour who was trimming his very large palm trees saw a red hatch back car park outside my house. As he was working in a mechanical hoist and with a chain saw, they had ear protection on, and they thought that the people were visitors. He saw one exit the house about 3.45 pm but once again never thought much of it as we tend to have a busy house, as both my wife and I are from large families. It was only a matter of minutes later, that to speak to his helper on the ground, that they both turned off the machines and removed the ear protection, that they heard our alarm ringing. They immediately ran and saw the patio door smashed and notified the Gardai. When I returned home at 4.30pm The Gardai pulled up and told me of the reported crime. We checked the house but nothing was stolen. The female German Shepherd was running around and 30 mins lapsed before we realised that the puppies had been stolen. They were in the Boiler room that was adjacent to the house. This was the only things that was stolen. Since then we have not heard sight or sound about them. There were 7 puppies, 3 males one black and gold and 2 sables. there was one black and tan female and the rest were sable colour. They were not microchipped. I had booked my vet to call out yesterday, Monday. I have attached a photo of three of the puppies, showing the colour differences between sables and black and tans. Hopefully you can help. I have notified the ISPCA, the USPCA and it has been posted on various sites. I have also ran articles in all the press that will run the story.
