A REWARD is offered for any information leading to the whereabouts of two Beagle bitches, believed to have been stolen from the Hartshill area of Chester on September 25.

The mother and daughter are five-years and 14 months old respectively, and are both blanket tris. The daughter has a distinctive white blaze and the mother is described as small and with greying eyes and nose. Both were wearing collars at the time of their disappearance and both are microchipped. The owners are deeply distressed, especially as the older bitch has left a litter of puppies.

If you can help, please call Jane Howells on 01829-782357.
