I know your scare, ive had a similar experience with one of my previous yorkies (RIP) a LONG time ago, she also found her way out and someone picked her up, and claimed her, my husband and i were devistated... he searched for her till 11pm that night, fortunaly and bless this person, gave him a tip to where she might be because she saw those people take her in the car with them, he found out where they lived and spoke to them, they denied everything so he gave them a fair warning, the next morning at 5am we heard a pathetic little cry at our front door (thought i was dreaming) then i listened closely and heard it again, my husband jumped out the bed to open the door... there she was, soon as we turned on the lights, we heard a car pull out our driveway, all 3 of us sat there crying and hugging each other, sad part is, she was traumatized for the rest of her life, as soon as we opened the door for visitors, she used to run to our bedroom to hide!
This whole experience is still very clear in my mind and its something i will NEVER forget, i think thats probably why im over protective of my 2 girls now, im always "alert" when walking anywhere with them!
Im SO glad you caught what was happening in time, you did good by acting so strong and showing him that he doesnt scare you, though i know how scared you must have been, you gave him a piece of your mind
WELL DONE
Thank you for sharing your story, this might save a lot of heartbreak and warn people to stay alert at all times
