Please Help! Stolen Yorkie from Sarasota Fl - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

omg.... I am so happy the baby was found!!!!

OMG...so happy the Yorkie is home again. I wonder about why the lady would just drive away with the dog rather than park and start asking the visible people about where it lived. I have found dogs in the middle of a street...a very busy street...and the first thing I did was look for people to ask after parking on the side of the road, stopping traffic, picking up the small dog, and getting it back on the side of the street where there were houses.

I am just SO happy. She is home again..what a nightmare, watching your dog be taken in front of you. Hugs

WOW....Thank goodness.....Someone was watching over her. I am so glad they were able to get her back. Is anything going to happen with the lady who took her?

I have to admit I had no hope also! I just felt we had to at least try everything!

They are not pressing charges, they are just happy Haley made it back home! They asked from the start to bring her back home no questions asked! What Christmas gift! The police have on record who brought Haley back.

Thank god your neighbor has her baby back. One of the few lucky ppl that see their lil baby again. Boy would I love to be a fly on the wall where that lady that picked up the pup is staying. Just very happy the pup is back home.

I'm so happy to hear this. I can't imagine how devastated I'd be to lose Cookie, which is why she is always on a leash outside other than in my back yard (and she is always supervised while out back).

Wonderful news. Hope she gets her baby a chip.

THANK YOU God. So glad to here she has been recovered to her mommy.

A Christmas miracle

I would be devastated, too. I believe the OP said the Yorkie was being supervised, and another person was present as well...but when someone wants what you have...

Also, a member here was walking her Yorkie on a leash when a man scooped her up and put her under his coat. The Yorkie was wearing a Buddy Belt, so the owner was able to pull her baby away, and some people came to her aid as well.

There are numerous reports of people jumping fences to snatch other people's dogs. I had a neighbor that had that happen...they had an 8' stockade fence.

I am very happy they got this baby back.

A chip certainly might be helpful if the Yorkie were to get lost. I am not certain it would have helped in this situation...unless the dog had managed to escape the lady that 'swiped' her, then was found by someone else who took her somewhere that could scan for a chip.

This was a very weird situation, from the sound of it. I cannot imagine the horror the owner must have felt watching her Yorkie snatched by a stranger, and the joy in her heart now that she has her Yorkie baby back home with her.

My best to owner and Yorkie baby...happy holidays!

I'm a neighbor of this owner here in Sarasota. Two weeks ago, I was walking with my dog and this tiny dog comes out of nowhere and I pick it up. No collar. I stop the first person who drives by who tells me that she saw kids playing with her in a yard two houses down. I knock on the door and she answers the door, not seeming surprised and actually a little annoyed. I ask if this was her dog and she said that she "puts her out in the morning to do her thing and she eventually makes her way back"...I was floored. I told her that we have coyotes and ospreys who live in the neighborhood that would have no problem grabbing her. She responded that she had just moved from Georgia and didn't know. I told her they have Ospreys and Coyotes in Georgia. I handed her the dog and mentioned that she may also want to put a collar on her. I walked home thinking that that dog will end up missing or dead or both. Other neighbors I talked to also said they saw the dog running around, after all, we dog owners know our neighborhood doggies, so I'm not surprised that someone picked up the dog WITH NO COLLAR and walking around free. Perhaps another concerned neighbor. I heard from a neighbor who has a blue car who was accused of taking the dog (but didn't, apparently, they were walking around the neighborhood looking for blue cars and knocking on doors!). I'm a dog lover and this woman doesn't know how to take care of this little life. I am POSITIVE that I will see it running around again, soon enough!

A Christmas miracle! My heart broke when read your post and I am so thankful your baby is back home. A great lesson for all of us to be ever so careful with our Yorkies. Never leave them in a car alone. Heartless people will take them. Today I send prayers of thanks for your miracle. No one knows the pain of losing a pet like the owner and you have your precious Yorkie back! God is watching over you and your family!
