Police have renewed their appeal after a family of goats were stolen.

Three Nigerian Dwarf goats - a nanny and her two three-week-old kids - were stolen from a secure barn in South Perrott, near Beaminster, between 5.30pm on Sunday, November 27 and 9am on Monday, November 28.

The padlock on the barn was forced to gain entry.

Police Constable Tim Sturgess, of Bridport police, said: “The stolen goats are family pets and the incident has devastated the family and they are very concerned for the safety of their goats.

“I am appealing to anyone who may have seen or heard anything suspicious in the area during the relevant time period to contact officers.

“I would also like to hear from anyone who has seen the livestock pictured for sale under suspicious circumstances.”

Anyone with information is urged to call 101.
