Police have launched an investigation after two dogs were stolen in the middle of the night from their kennels in the Highlands.
Officers were called to a property outside Kingussie after two springer spaniels were taken between 8pm on Sunday and 7.30am on Monday.
One dog is an 11-year-old female which has a white body, a docked tail and liver brown colouring on her head and ears.
The other is a three-year-old female, described as mostly white with a black head and ears and a black patch by the tail.
