“We have searched all the main roads and country roads for them. They normally roam our farm and everyone knows our dogs around the area.”

Chukka is a four-year-old female terrier-cross dog with black, white and brown markings.

Jibber is a ten-year-old Norfolk cross Jack Russell terrier, with a brown coat and a docked tail.

Alison has reported the incident to police and the local dog warden and her Facebook appeal has received more than 1,000 shares already.
