police,constabulary,leicestershire policeDog stolen from kennel in Coalville

Police are appealing for information about the current whereabouts of a stolen dog that was taken from his home in Coalville last week.

The incident happened sometime between 7.30pm on Tuesday January 17 and 8.30am the following morning (Wednesday January 18), when the owners discovered that the kennel door had been opened and the dog, a Lurcher, was missing.

The kennel was sat outside at the back of the house and also contained a second dog, a Jack Russell, which wasnt taken.

Dancer has been described as a 3-year-old black Lurcher with brown spots around his eyes.

Detective Constable Darren Lewis, the investigating officer, said: Dancer is part of the family and his owners are desperate to have him back.

Its likely that those responsible left via the back garden and onto an open field. If you live in the area or was in the field you may have seen someone who was acting suspiciously? Perhaps you saw them leaving with the Dancer? If so please get in touch.

I would also like to speak to anyone who knows the current whereabouts Dancer. If you have been offered him to buy or know someone who has recently acquired a similar dog in suspicious circumstances then please call us.

Anyone with any information about the incident is asked to contact DC 2886 Darren Lewis on 101*, follow the instructions to leave a message for a police officer and when prompted key in the officer's identification number 2886. Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers, which is free** and anonymous, on 0800 555 111.

* Calls to 101 cost 15p for the entire call from both mobile phones and land lines
