RICHMOND —
The resident of a Villa Drive apartment realized Monday morning that two of his dogs had been stolen.
Richmond police reported Thursday that the resident’s apartment was “unsecured” at the time of the burglary.
Police Chief Larry Brock gave a description of the dogs in a press release.
The first dog is a black and white male pit bull with a brown leather collar with blue and green dog tags attached. The dog answers to “Zeus.”
The second dog is a brindle female pit bull with a white chest and a white spot on the neck. She wears a black nylon harness with a mesh chest piece and answers to the name of “Lady.”
The estimated loss of the two dogs totals $1,000, according to Brock.
Anyone with information about the dogs’ whereabouts is asked to call the Richmond Police Department at 623-1162.
