Maureen remember the law is on your side, which ever way you decide to play this out.
With or without officers assistance.
Zeke is considered personal property to you, so they broke the law the second they took him.
It doesn't matter where Zeke was.
If they were responsible ,good ,law abiding ,citizens, they would have taken Zeke to the nearest police station and told them they found a lost dog.
Its obvious Zeke isn't a stray dog....
He is a well kept purebred...which eliminates him being homeless.
I'm going to the store real quick to get a pack of cigarettes.
I pray within that time Zeke is in your arms.
Jack send crossed paws to.
