A WOMAN has been left heartbroken after her ten-week-old puppy was stolen in a burglary at her Calverton home.
Thieves who snatched pug Lola also took Marie Merrington's car and iPod.
Miss Merrington has put up posters and appealed on internet sites for information on Lola's whereabouts.
She said: "As each day goes by, we are becoming more and more concerned about Lola's health.
"She hadn't been well and was suffering a stomach upset and was on antibiotics.
"We were feeding her very specific food. We want to know she is OK and want her back."
Miss Merrington and her partner had only had Lola for two weeks when the break-in happened in the early hours of Monday, April 11.
The couple slept through it.
Miss Merrington said: "We didn't hear anything. We were woken at about 6am when one of our cats came upstairs miaowing.
"My partner went downstairs and let it out the front door so we didn't disturb Lola. Then it came back up again. We just knew something wasn't right."
Miss Merrington added: "We went downstairs again and saw we had been burgled. They hadn't left much of a mess but because of Lola's stomach upset she had left dog mess, which they then trod through the house.
"They took other things, but they can be replaced. We just want our dog back."
Miss Merrington said they had received a call from a woman living nearby about a possible sighting of Lola, but nothing had come of it. "If anyone out there knows anything about what has happened to Lola, then we would really like to hear from them," she added.
"Two weeks have now gone by and we are extremely concerned."
A police spokesman said: "Our inquiries are continuing and we would urge anyone with information to call 0300 300 9999 and ask for Carlton CID or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
