A group of masked men are reportedly trying to steal dogs in parts of Wiltshire.
A green and silver-coloured Suzuki 4×4 was seen driving around the Shalbourne, Bedwyn, Bagshot and Hungerford area with the occupants attempting to take dogs from kennels, gardens and back yards of addresses on 18 November.
Wiltshire Police said that in some cases, a suspect will ring the front doorbell while another goes around the back of the property to try and steal the animals.
Officers are now asking people to be vigilant and keep their dogs locked inside the house or ensure their kennels are safe and secure.
Anyone with any information about this vehicle or the occupants should call police on 101 quoting crime reference number 54200115124. Call 999 if a crime is in progress.
