Donating YT 14K Club Member | Oh, wow! That's terrible!!!! With the growing popularity of the yorkie breed, people are going to extremes in order to get one. A breeder friend in town had one of her dogs stolen right out of her parked car in front of a convenience store. She chased them for at least 20 miles to another town. Sheriff's dept was called and she was able to prove the dog was hers and she filed charges. I hope that this person gets their dog back...so sad!

Doesn't look like they were necessarily partial to Yorkies since they took Maltese, Poms, Chihuahuas as well. I feel so sorry for the owners but also for the dogs. I just wonder if someone that could care so little will take good care of these babies or see that the pregnant one gets the needed c-section. Breaks my heart for all concerned. | |

| Tell Darlene I'm so sorry! It seems now days you hear more and more about show dogs being stolen, out of vehicles, airports, etc. They can't breed these dogs and sell their pups paper or show them. Makes you wonder what they are using them for. I don't even go potty without Connor.

| Oh my gosh...that is so terrible! I will be praying for their safe return! How could they steal 7 dogs? There must have been more than one of them to be able to grab them all and get out of there. My heart goes out to all the owners.

| No news that I know of on the dogs. Darlene shows her dogs. Someone on my other forum posted about Darlene's dogs missing and Darlene wanted to get this information out to everyone in hopes that her dogs could be found. I have gone to shows lately and everytime I am out traveling I think how easy it would be. One is so vulnerable when traveling to a new city and not familar with the surroundings. You have to go out away from the car at times - to check in to the hotel, grab something to eat, etc... I always travel with either my husband or my older daughter, so one of us can stay in the car. When you are at shows though you do some people that leave their dogs alone on tables, crates, or will hand dogs off to strangers. Just last month I had someone hand me a champion standard poodle to hold while he was in the ring with another dog. Yes, I was right near the ring, but he did not know who I was. It would have been so easy to leave. There is that trust at shows one has with everyone, but with the changing times I think that people must be so careful. I have heard in just this month of 2 other show people that had their purse stolen and attacked. Luckily the dogs were okay. As one owner said - the real value was not in her purse, but in the crate. T. Tami - I just thought --- How easy it would be to register the stolen dogs with CKC (Continental). Maybe those people were thinking the same. Who knows. At least some changes with registrations (CKC) will be changing in Jan. and won't hopefully be as easy to register any dog. Last edited by topknot; 11-22-2006 at 05:23 AM. |

| This is so sad. I will be praying for a safe return of all the stolen dogs. Sometimes, I really hate this world. The evil that exists is unbelievable. I really hope that those poor babies are found ASAP. |

| What a heartbreak. This world, I agree, is so sick sometimes. I do not understand how some human beings have no conscience. Aren't we all born with one? I pray all the dogs are safe and found soon. The poor little Chi! This time of year somehow makes it sadder to read these horror stories. Please keep us updated. Carol & Buddy |
