In July while I was waiting at bus station a group of young men saw just the small dog carrier and were talking about grabbing Mya. I ran to a coffee shop and called my son who lived close by, the boys followed me to the coffee shop. My son was there in 5 mins. With pet stores around here selling even mixed breed puppies for $3,000.00 Thugs are seeing them as quick way to make cash.
A man was attacked by two teenage girls his puppy stolen in the summer when he agreed to deliver the pup to their condo complex. He got the puppy back and the girls were caught and charged. |
Great idea about the e-mail addy in the add!!!!! I havent had any puppies for sale in over a year and havent ran an add in a couple of years. I need to remember to always be on my toes when it comes to thieves and scammers!!
