All three were microchipped. Also stolen during the burglary was a harness, but ponies the Wiltshire family keeps in the adjoining stables were left alone.

Sophia Wiltshire, 29, said: "I haven't stopped crying. I'm missing them loads. They're a big part of the family."

Her partner Russell is also "devastated" by what has happened.

Posters have been distributed and word of the dogs' disappearance is being spread on the Facebook website.

Sophia's mum Nadia, 57, added: "We're absolutely gutted. It's just awful not knowing where they are. I'm worried about what conditions they might be being kept in and whether they are being fed properly."

Anyone who knows of the dogs' whereabouts should call the police on 101, quoting crime reference number 132328/12.

    “As stated all three dogs were microchipped. With so much new technology available it must be possible to have some similar or modified device produced to act as a tracking device. I'll have to make some investigations and report back.”

    “I would like to say a very very big massive heartfelt thank you to all the people that have took there time out to repost links put up posters being villi gent and keeping a look out me and my family are so very overwhelmed and greatfull by the response we have had it's helped me and my family stay strong,

    I know there's proberbly people out there going to think well there only dogs but the thing is there my dogs which mean so so very much to me they are part of the family and very well loved and liked very loyal loving and caring, I don't smoke I don't drink and I hardly go out, my animals are my addiction they keep me fit healthy and show an unconditional love, and I am crying out to get back what is rightfully mine and my partners we have had these dogs from pups we have put so much time love and care into these animals and they have never let us down so we are not about to start thinking of giving up we are offering a reward for the safe return for all 3 dogs I want this to get out to who ever has got them a plea not to split them up just please bring our dogs back home were they belong I would just wish that these people would put thereselfs in our shoes and feel the pain of losing a pet family member not one but three, what kills the most is the not knowing and wondering all the time that's the worst! I only want one present for Xmas and that would be for my dogs to be reunited with me and my family I know there missing and pining for us just as we are for them. Thank you for taking time in reading this godbless”

    “Escuse me what you having a go at me for I said sadly it's hardly important news to the BEP because it took them a week to cover the story, in my opinion this should have been covered by them far sooner than this!

    Like I said I've been looking for these dogs and spreading the work on Facebook, I also said I hope the dogs are reunited soon!”

    “In reply to Hu_Yu_Fa_King with regards to the aforementioned article, should you be as interested in the news as you imply you would have noticed the article is present in todays news along with all the other relevant world news. And in reply to Greybaby14 had this been part of your family that had been taken i am certain that you would explore every avenue as WE have to try and get them back. Thankyou for youre concern.
    Our family would like to thank everyone whos shown concern and offerd help to bring home our family pets.”

    “Sadly it's hardly important news as it took nearly a week to make it to the ears of the BEP.

    I live near where this happened and walk my dogs in Felton, I heard about this on Friday and I've kept my eyes open for the these poor dogs ever since. I so hope they are found and reunited soon.”

    “@Hu_Yu_Fa_King
    Don't you think its important that other dog owners are aware of it? Why would this be an isolated incident?

    Hope they are returned safe and sound very soon.”
