LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -

A representative for entertainer Criss Angel said Tuesday that the "Believe" star was offering $5,000 for the return of his puppy after the animal was snatched during a burglary at a Las Vegas pet store.

The puppy, a Yorkshire terrier, was among four dogs stolen early Monday morning at the Prince & Princess Puppies and Boutique on Rainbow Boulevard near the 215 Beltway.

A pair of white French bulldog puppies and a gray Schnauzer were also taken, according to Metro police.

Authorities believe the two men who committed the burglary also stole four exotic birds from Acrylic Tank Manufacturing near Decatur Boulevard and Warm Springs Road.

The business is the setting for the Animal Planet reality show "Tanked."

Angel is currently on vacation while his show is dark, according to his representative, and was boarding his puppy at the Prince & Princess store.

Police on Monday released video of the thefts and photos of the two suspects.
