1. No "telltale" signs like Yorkie flags or signs by the door.
2. We have a glass front door..... I now put something in the way of it to "shadow" the dogs so people can't see them when they come to the door.
I have a few more (but they are obvious ones)....
I, also will watch my back at Petstores and also in public.....( and also try to note if anyone else is being targeted while I am there).... It is good for us to watch out for eachother, too!!! |
With all the threads on YT about stolen Yorkies, I have resolved myself that no matter how cute a yorkie sign, etc. is - I will not buy it.
I don't want to be parnoid about taking the dogs out, but I do question it now. I recently walked the dogs at night - after it was dark and I was freaking out every time a car seemed to be driving too slow - thinking how easy it would be for someone to overcome me & take the dogs.
But just not in the dark, I worry that others know I have these babies & they might want them
