Shelter officials are especially concerned because one of the dogs, "Gerry", needs medication and surgery.
The one-and-a-half year-old has problems with a back leg and needs surgery to repair his knee and hip.
The other pit bull, "Phoenix", is a female, approximately two-years-old with white spots.
The thieves entered the shelter by cutting the lock on the back gate. They then used a shovel to pry open the runs where the dogs were.
Anyone with information on the dogs is urged to call police at 508-824-7522 or the shelter at 508-822-2150.
This isn't the first time animals have been stolen from the Taunton Animal Shelter. Last year, a beagle was taken but later returned.
