‘Our family members': 3 French bulldogs stolen from Fayetteville home
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (WNCN) — They're small and full of energy, but for KT Fields, her French bulldogs mean the world.
'They're literally our family members … These are our dogs,' said Fields.
The mother of two said she has six of them; however, earlier this week she said three of the dogs were stolen.
Fields said she first noticed an open gate and their front door open after she returned home from an appointment shortly after 10:30 a.m. Monday
'They had to have just straight busted through this door,' said Fields who also pointed at the side of the family's home off Old Field Road in Fayetteville. She said the door was locked and had been broken in.
When Fields ran in, she realized three of her Frenchies were gone — Lilo, Caine, and Princess, who is weeks away from having puppies and will also need a C-section.
'They were in the house no more than 20 minutes. I got home 8 minutes after they had left my house,' Fields said.
The family said their home security system captured the moment three people in hoods and masks — one seen in video carrying a gun — rummaged through the house. The video shows the three searching through rooms, drawers, closets, and personal items. Fields said the unknown intruders not only took jewelry, but they were also spotted taking the dogs. The family believes they left in a white BMW.
'You're not thinking, 'Oh, somebody's going to come and bust in your house in broad daylight,'' said Fields. 'I have never, ever stolen from someone or thought to break into someone's house. I have never. So, I just can't fathom, why?'
Fields thinks the thieves may have taken the dogs because French bulldogs are known to be valuable. She's checked with local vets, shelters, printed posters, and called for help across social media.
'We love them, we adore them … I really just want my dogs back,' said Fields.
The family said the break-in has left them shaken and unable to return back to the home. Fields said they continue to work with Fayetteville police and hope to offer a reward to whoever can bring them back safely.
