TAMPA, FL — The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office is continuing its hunt for two thieves who broke into a Tampa pet store early Friday morning and stole three puppies.
On Jan. 29, just before 5 a.m., two men broke the front glass door of the All About Puppies pet store at 13705 N. Dale Mabry Highway and stole a 4-month-old black and white female French bulldog named Darla; a 2-month old tan male French bulldog named Owa; and a 3-month-old female English bulldog named Patches.
"We are asking the public to remain alert and contact our detectives if they know who these suspects are, or if they spot these puppies," said Sheriff Chad Chronister. "The thieves are likely trying to sell the stolen puppies, so those with plans to find their next furry friend must do their research before taking one home."
