https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-45963787Knife-wielding robbers stole eight French bulldog puppies from a home after threatening a pregnant mother and her children.
The men seized the day-old puppies from their 26-year-old owner at the home in Stretford, Greater Manchester.
Two or three men are thought to have been involved, using a knife to scare the woman and her three young children on Tuesday night.
Pedigree French bulldog puppies can sell for more than £1,000 each.
Greater Manchester Police have released CCTV and appealed for anyone with information about the "terrifying" robbery to contact the force.
Det Sgt Dave Jones said: "It's completely shocking that a pregnant woman and her three young children have faced such a terrifying ordeal, and we are determined to find the men responsible.
"The puppies are only a day old, and they won't survive for long without their mum, so they need to be brought home as soon as possible."
