Elkhart County police are searching for 18 puppies after they were reported stolen from a farm near Middlebury late last week.

The French Bulldog puppies were taken sometime in the early morning hours between midnight and 4 a.m.

According to WSBT, the puppies retail for anywhere between $2,000 and 9,000 apiece.

The breeder, who is licensed with the USDA, told police that the dogs came from four different litters.
