Husky Zala and German shepherd Zeus went missing from the back garden of Jacqui Millson's home in Tankersley, Barnsley, on December 22 last year.
She and her fiancé Steve Andrews have spent thousands of pounds printing leaflets, T-shirts and posters in a desperate attempt to find their beloved pets.

Posting on the Find Zala and Zeus Facebook page yesterday, they wrote: "Completely overwhelmed by how many kind and generous people I have met on this horrendous journey. You make me feel very humble.
"One lady offered an extra £2,000 yesterday and another offered to add £2,000 today. You both know who you are.
"So let's share the hell out of this new amount and bring back my babies."

A possible sighting of the animals was recently reported near The Nottingham House pub in Broomhill Sheffield, where dogs matching their description were seen with a man believed to be around 6ft who was wearing a peaked cap.
