Can you imagine a normal good person thinking -- I'll bring your dog back for $250 - but not for only $50..... just doesn't happen! And, as we have mentioned before -most people wouldn't even accept a reward for this kind act. But, it they did - that's fine too.....
Or - can you imagine a person calling and saying, "I think I've found your dog. How much is the reward you're offering?????" No way!
My sister got her dog back years ago - (she worked at a restaurant) and she gave the lady a gift certificate for dinner for two where she worked....they were thrilled. She waited on them and had a bottle of wine taken to their table. Then - they left her a $25 tip (unheard of 20 years ago!) What a wonderful world!
******* Remember people kidnap children for high ramsoms -- taking a dog for a reward is no different...

You have a point! Thanks for sharing.

I'm glad I just put "reward" on the tag. But let's hope I never have to search for my lost Baby.
