Police have released images of two 12-week-old puppies stolen from a house in Leicester.
The Staffordshire bull terriers were taken during a burglary in Helena Crescent, Leicester, on 22 June at about 20:45 BST.
Releasing an appeal for information on Thursday, Leicestershire Police said inquiries were continuing to identify those responsible and reunite the puppies, a boy and a girl, with their owner.
It is believed the suspects entered the house through the back garden before they took the puppies from the conservatory while the owners were out of the room.
Det Con Phoebe Whittington said it had been a warm day, and the puppies were believed to have been in the conservatory of the house with the door ajar.
She said: "The suspects have entered the back garden of the property and taken two of the puppies before running from the scene.
"The owner of the puppies is understandably very upset and is desperate for the dogs to be returned.
"I would ask for people to take a look at the photos 鈥 do you recognise the dogs? Have you seen them for sale?"
