TAMPA, Fla. – The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office is searching for two unidentified suspects who broke into a pet store and stole three puppies.
On Friday, January 29, 2021, just before 5:00 a.m., two men broke the front glass door of the All About Puppies pet store located at 13705 North Dale Mabry Highway in Tampa.
The suspects stole a four-month-old black and white female French Bulldog named “Darla,” a two-month-old tan male French Bulldog named “Owa,” and a three-month-old merle female English Bulldog named “Patches.”
The suspects fled the scene toward an unknown location.
“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.”
Anyone with information on this case is asked to call the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office at (813) 247-8200.
