Tell the spy girls all the training they gave me finally paid off...

That poor little dog. I could never leave my dogs outside in an exercise pen. Maybe they will leave the dog indoors after receiving your note but I doubt it

Good luck. You did the right thing. Keep us updated.

[QUOTE=HisNameIsHarley;1029281]But leaving them outside unattended while your gone, just like the yorkie in this thread, is setting yourself up for trouble. It's like easy picking. Yes, people could steal my car if they really, really wanted to. But they would have a heck of a lot more trouble w/ my doors locked, windows up and alarm on than w/ everything wide open and ready to go. Everybody to their own but I personally keep all mine safe inside.

And w/ English bulldogs you have to be extra careful in the heat. They will easily overheat, their tongues will swell and their throats close. And peke's have the smooshed faces so their nasal cavities are smaller and will cause difficulty breathing when out in the heat. It's sad but true. Even with shade and water it will happen. AC is the only true prevenative. Maybe a doggie door would work at your house?[/QUOTE

Yes i know the dangers of leaving the dogs outside but the peke was original an outside dog before i got her she used to stay outside with a pit bulls. It is still cool here we haven't gotten the hot weather yet. I know the dangers of the english bulldog he has had surgery on his nose already when it starts getting hot he will stay inside but for now he is outside during the day. my iguana stay outside for now also. when i am at home and the dogs want to go outside i let them and they for hours before they decide to scratch to come in.

LOve that you left the note....I really thought that was the best thing to do (for now)....I hope all works out well for this poor little pup....please keep us posted!

I hope everything works out for the best

I hope that It all works out for the best.
I thought about it and I maybe would have taken her in if the situation was bad enough. And left a note letting them know that she was with me and they could come get her when ever they were ready. And then invite them in for tea/drink and try talking to them about the dangers.
Don't know if it would work but it would be worth a try.

Is there an update on this??

[Sammietheyorkie]

Yes, this is like a TV show now...what is the ending?? Don't keep us hanging!

"Hi, my name is _____ and I noticed that you have a Yorkie. I have one also and wanted to know if you'd like to have them have a playdate. I also wanted to let you know that there is a HUGE market for Yorkies right now, and they are getting stolen right and left. I happened to be home all day yesterday and noticed that your baby was outside and it just scared me to death to think that someone could steal her (him?) and I know you'd be so heartbroken." Or somethign like that Then let them know about the killer dog. While you're over there, maybe offer to help her fix the fencing so that a big dog would have a harder time getting to her dog, take a look at it and see if there's any food/water dishes or shelter of any kind.

REACH OUT! Then, if nothing has changed or the woman tells you to F off, call the animal control. A Yorkie will NOT get euthanized, believe me. Someone that works there would more than likely take it home. But please don't risk jail or even just the neighbor's wrath by taking the dog.

I like this idea. Try to talk to her.

Sorry I guess I was too late. So....what happened? I want to know too!
