Owner Diane Dawson said five-year-olds Oli and Bryony were taken overnight between 16:30 on Wednesday and 08:30 on Thursday.
"It's absolutely devastating. They are like family to us," said Mrs Dawson.
"The two they have taken were bred by us so their mothers are still here."

"Alpacas have become popular in the last few years and they often appear for sale online," she said.
"These are like celebrities in the village and a lot of people come to see them."
Leicestershire Police, which is investigating, has asked anyone who has information about the thefts to get in touch.

BBC News OnlineA family had their stolen antique musical instruments returned after spotting them on an auction website.
Mike Gleaden, 61, from Retford, Nottinghamshire, was left devastated after the high-value instruments were taken from his late mother's home in Ordsall Road between 22 and 24 July.
She had died from coronavirus only a few months before.
Mr Gleaden discovered a flute and piccolo made by Rudall Carte & Co with matching serial numbers were being auctioned online in North Yorkshire.

"I think if I hadn't organised a number of alerts and notifications to let me know when a piccolo and flute matching the description were going on sale, we'd never have seen them again.
"My brother will now look after them, as he was due to inherit them before they were stolen."
Police said a number of items - including a cigarette case and an inscribed silver tankard - are still missing and appealed for witnesses.
