Two stolen puppies have been reunited with their owner thanks in part to some 'pawsome” work by the Counties Manukau Tactical Crime Unit.
Maui and Alleycat were left orphaned after their bulldog mother Alice died during birth.
'The five month old puppies – who are each worth well over $1000 - were stolen from their Gisborne home almost three weeks ago,” says a statement from police.
'An anonymous tip revealed that the expensive puppies had been split up and taken to Auckland and Kawerau.”
Police conducted search warrants in Otara and Kawerau on Wednesday, recovering both Alleycat (pictured) and Maui.
'Their elated owner can't wait to be reunited with her beloved pups. Thanks to the public for helping us find Maui and Alleycat.”

Awesome (or is it pawsome) to have 'positive' dog story but I guess we'll have the usual suspects saying its a waste of Police time & that they wouldn't have been stolen if the owner had been more careful!!
Reunited again.
