FREDERICTON - Someone has stolen three unweaned puppies from a New Brunswick farm — and RCMP warn the dogs' lives are in danger if they're not returned.
Investigators say it's believed the puppies were taken from their kennels in a barn at Wilson's Farm in Estey's Bridge.

The dogs are described as a dark brown and white male Chihuahua and two Havanese-Maltese -- a black and white female and a white and brown male.
Police say the break-in occurred sometime between 2 a.m. and 4:30 a.m.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Keswick detachment of the RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
