Search for stolen dogs

By BRIDGET COOK

ONE of the three dogs stolen from a pound this month was found wandering around Cranbourne last night.
The female blue/grey staffy was located by dog walkers in the vicinity of Cranbourne-Frankston Road at about 6pm last night. She has since been reunited with her owners.
Police are still seeking to locate two other dogs, which were also stolen from the Lost Dogs Home, in Cranbourne, just after 11pm on Saturday 3 May.
Two men spent almost an hour and a half inside the shelter, before allegedly stealing three dogs.
The two dogs still missing are a six-month-old tan and white, male American Staffy mix and black and white female American Staffy pup.
Police have released CCTV images of two men they believe may be able to assist with the investigation.
The first man was described as Caucasian and aged early to mid-twenties. He was wearing a dark hoody, blue shorts with white writing, grey sneakers, black socks and a dark-coloured cap.
The second man was wearing a dark hoody, navy track pants with white stripes down the side, sneakers and a dark-coloured cap.
Anyone with any information about the burglary is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
