A family has been left heartbroken and desperate to be reunited with a puppy stolen from their home.

Thieves forced their way into a property in Coventry on Monday evening, West Midlands Police said.

Seven-month-old Hugo, a French bulldog, was taken along with Christmas presents.

The break-in happened at about 17:50 GMT on Arch Road and the force is appealing for anyone with information to come forward.

A Coventry branch of the RSPCA had earlier issued a warning about dog thefts in the area after an attempt by three men to take a dog from a member of staff on Sunday, it said.

"The member of staff and dog are OK but shaken," the charity posted on Facebook. , external

Officers are also trying to trace a 12-week-old puppy stolen from a home in the city on 23 October.
