| Yorkie Stealing A friend of my dautghter's was in the Walmart on Winchester here in Memphis. She had her Yorkie in one of those purses. Someone took her dog and replaced it with a weight that would feel like it. The young lady did not discover it until check out.....yes I know, our worst nightmare. |

| It was a 3 month old baby. Amber used to carry Mika in one of those when she was tiny, but she's too big now. |

| How in the world could someone do that without your daughter's friend noticing? Did she set the purse down for a while...or have it in her cart and turn her back? What a sad story...I feel so bad for the owner.

| Oh I would be crying if that happened. I make sure never to turn my back or take my hands of the bag. Even when you are shopping with your purse they will steal anything. Even kids so nothing we can trust out there. I can't imagine that happening and they didn't locate the person. I know they watch for shop lifters

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Pickpocketers do this for a living, they are good at it. One of the faculty I support took a trip to France with a friend of hers and the daughter. While riding a tram, and talking to some gentleman, he ran off the train right as the doors closed and she found her wallet was missing.

| Oh my gosh! I hope she had the puppy microchipped/tattooed. Imagine how much the puppy will have to deal with. It's probably being fed a different food now, having stomach aches. I hope she posts missing flyers! |

My Little Man! Donating Member | This is horrible!!!! I would demand security camera's tapes! They have cameras all over that store!
