I would see if the man could email you a picture and you email him a picture. If you think the match might be possible -- drive over there and see. Rightfully, if you have the papers and he does not, the police would probably side with you on a custody issue. But it would be worth it to me to offer to split the guys $900 with him and offer a $450 reward. He should not have bought without some ownership proof. I would also be suspicious that he was the one who took him and was looking for a reward.
It would make sense that if people are snatching dogs in one area they would take them a ways away to sell them. |
