The four puppies, worth about £500 each, were born on Easter Sunday and the mother, Rosie, was only 18 months old.

Cara said: "It's not about the money, we just was our Rosie back. We're heartbroken and apart from anything else the break-in has really affected the children."

CCTV footage from a neighbour's property appears to show someone come out of the house carrying the dogs before a Blue Vectra leaves the area.

Miss Conroy said: "They were watching me and 90 seconds after I left for the school run they parked at the back of my house and went in my gate and smashed my back doors, pulled the handle off of the door and broke my window.
