I'm glad you got Callie back, but I agree I think it's ransom. If Callie's tag had fallen off I could understand but I am sure she knew the address since she lives that close to you. Do you think maybe she planned on keeping Callie or selling her but got nervous? I saw on the news a few months ago there has been an increase in theft of purebreeds especially small sizes during this economy. She probably intended to sell Callie or hold her for the reward money. It's sad. People don't realize that pets are actually family members but then again maybe they do. So thats why the steal them. Don't worry that lady will lose $500 and more in some fashion.
