Two of four purebred show dogs that were in town for the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship dog show and that were taken along with a stolen cargo van in Bellflower Tuesday have been found.
The two Akitas -- Trace and Didi -- were turned in by a woman and the van was found by police in Compton.
Two Pembroke Welsh Corgis -- Peter and Bunny -- remain missing.
The owners of the Akitas brought all four dogs from Redding, Calif. to compete in the dog show in Downtown Long Beach, the second largest competition of its kind in the nation.
The Corgis belong to a client of the couple.
The search for the Peter and Bunny continues and the investigation into the stolen van and dogs is still active, Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies said.

Is there any more information? Were the Akitas found loose or in their crates? In Compton or somewhere else? Were the Corgi crates in the van when it was found or not?

It would help to know if they are running around loose or not.

Is there any organized search?
