Caught on CCTV: The moment thief snatches pair of pedigree puppies after shoving owner to the ground

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Catch this man: The suspect allegedly shoved Sue Ramollo to the floor and flung both terrified dogs at a woman in the back seat of his car, with a driver already in the front seat with the engine running


A devastated dog owner has posted CCTV images on Facebook showing a thief stealing two of her puppies.

Sue Ramallo plastered pictures of the crook all over the internet in the hope that both her six-week-old Cocker Spaniels will be found safe and well.

The dogs were taken by the man - and two accomplices - in a pre-planned snatch and grab.


Stolen: Sue Ramallo had advertised the sale of their dogs' Indie and Joey's litter of eight when the thief called asking to come round to see them


Farm owner Mrs Ramallo, 42, and husband Carlos, 41, from Hurst, near Reading, had advertised the sale of their dogs' Indie and Joey's litter of eight when the thief called asking to come see them.

When he arrived he told her his partner was stuck in the car with a broken foot and asked if the puppies could be taken out to her.

When outside, he then shoved Sue to the floor and flung both terrified dogs at a woman in the back seat of his car, with a driver already in the front seat with the engine running.

Mrs Ramallo said: 'Whoever he is, this man is disgusting and he needs to be found.
'The poor puppies are too young to be away from their mother and will be terrified.

In the CCTV image the father of the puppies, Joey, can be seen worryingly following the man as he carries the puppies to the car.

She said: 'Looking back of course I wish I had done things differently.

'He didn't seem very nice when he came to my door and he kept phoning me up and changing when he was coming round because of his partner's supposed broken foot.

'I just hope he is caught and never allowed near animals again.'
