A Nantwich animal specialist has teamed up with dog owners and businesses to fight for stronger punishments for those guilty of pet theft.
Rachel Rodgers says the recent publicity around the theft of Nantwich labradors Welly and Denzel and a sharp rise in animals being stolen during the pandemic means laws need to change.

A new Facebook group called ‘Dog friendly shops in Nantwich and surrounding areas’ has been set up to help prevent dogs being left outside and at risk from thieves.
It comes after the high-profile case of Denzel and Welly, two black Labradors stolen from outside M&S on Beam Street in Nantwich on March 27.
Police say three people have now been charged by officers investigating dog thefts in Nantwich.
Officers arrested a man, woman and a teenage boy at a house in Stoke-on-Trent after recovering two stolen black Labradors which were taken from Nantwich town centre on Saturday.
Two stolen Nantwich Labrador dogs have been recovered from an address in Stoke-on-Trent this morning (Tuesday 30 March) and returned to their owners.
Three people at the address – a man, a woman and a 14-year-old boy – have all been arrested on suspicion of theft in relation to the incident.
Police investigating the theft of two Labrador dogs in Nantwich have released CCTV footage of two men they want to speak to about the incident.
The low-quality footage shows two men running along Market Street with the two black Labradors shortly after the dogs had been stolen from outside a Marks & Spencer store on Beam Street.
Police are hunting two men believed to have stolen these Labrador dogs from outside a shop in Nantwich.
Devastated owners Charlotte and Dale Robson have posted an appeal all over town and social media in a bid to get Denzel and Welly back.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
