"We've got containers that we use for storage, that are our office spaces and we got into work this morning to find that they had both been ransacked." he said.
"They took all dog training equipment. We've got a doggy treadmill which is very niche that they took, all dog training leads and collars and dog toys."
Jacob explained how thieves left behind iPads, social media equipment and even an expensive coffee machine in favour of the dog toys.

"We've only been open 18 months. We've put in a lot of money, me and the other co-owners, plus our time and effort. For it all to be taken overnight and really trivial stuff is just daft."
Items taken include various soft dog toys such as frisbees, lickimats and chews.
Thieves also made off with various Dewalt tools including, a circular saw, combo drill, batteries and various blades.
