She issued a desperate plea on social media

She shared a picture of the small dog along with a message for everyone in the Rathcoole area to be on the lookout.

She captioned the post: "My mum was broken into and they took her puppy Belle.

"Please please please if anyone has any info, she is microchipped, Rathcoole area."

She also made a TikTok about the incident.

In the clip, she appeared very emotional as she pleaded with her followers, saying: "My mum’s dog was stolen last night, and I just don’t know what to do for her.

"I feel so helpless. If anyone has any information in the Rathcoole area, which is where she was stolen, she is five months, she’s microchipped."

She wrote in the video: "I can’t explain how happy Belle makes my mum, she’s her best friend, and any information would be so so appreciated and thank you so much for sharing."
