I may be large, but I can move fast if necessary, and I can clear turnstiles with a single leap if necessary!!! I caught her as she was leaving the store with my baby....I had grabbed a monkey wrench from my cart as I bolted after the woman....when I hit that door with that item that set the alarm off because it was not paid for, THAT also brought the guards running to us....fortunately for her, because I caught her in the parking lot and was about to lace her butt with that monkey wrench when the guards ran up......It all ended well, I got my baby back unharmed, the woman survived the take down,... when the dust settled, they were all stunned that I was able to even MOVE as fast as I did! Just be very careful letting strangers hold/pet your baby....they steal Yorkies at any opportunity, as they are a hot ticket item and easily sold on Craigs List for big bucks.....and it happens here in Houston several times a month, between home invasions/robberies, car thefts, as well as just walking up and stealing your baby! And your baby is absolutely adorable.....he will draw the cooks as well as admirers!

Wow! That's an amazing story, Yorkiemom, and very good to know! I never thought of something like that happening. Thanks for the heads-up. I always really appreciate your thoughtful and knowledgeable posts. I've learned so much from this Yorkie community, as well!!!!
