Police said Anais Marquez and Karlie Pellock, both 19 and of Plainfield, are Petland employees who planned Friday's puppy theft with Emanuel Lopez, 19, of Plainfield.
Note: Lopez was also charged with animal cruelty after police found out he held the puppy down and blew marijuana smoke in her face until she passed out.
Both women were working during the theft, said Naperville Police Cmdr. Dave Hoffman. They allegedly had agreed to give Lopez $60 for the dog.
On Monday afternoon, a Plainfield woman returned the puppy to the store. Hoffman said she is not connected to the crime.
