One of Cowboy's pups was stolen today!

and this is a situation where the microchip would prove ownership ....

Nobody was home and he waited a couple of hours. The lady and her son came back and he said "I hear my dog barking in there and I want him back NOW". She said that was her dog that she'd had for years. Her young son (that we teach not to lie) said "Nah uh Mommie, that's Kopper in there". They KNEW who he was, where he belonged and kept him the entire time. Bob threatened to call the cops and she handed Kopper back over to him immediately.

I honestly feel the place was already scoped out and they were just waiting for a second of opportunity....especially since finding out another Yorkie was stolen from the same County 3 weeks prior.

Which is exactly why I worry that anyone will even see my yorkie. I really wish I could bring him to work with me, not only do I miss him, but then i'll know he's safe and ok! You really hit the nail on the head, sounds like the place was "scoped out" it wasn't random!

That is soo sad, prayers coming that he is found. I cant believe what kind of peole we got now these days !

[Julz]

Thank you everyone! Trust me, I will update you if he is found, no matter how far down the road it may be. I mentioned it to my father-in-law and he said about 4 were stolen in the surrounding counties lately. The poor owner of the pup is contacting vets in other counties and my Mom told her to watch the papers for cheaper priced Yorkies with no papers.

Julz, I forgot to ask.....were the police called????

I am so sorry to hear this. The poor family. What is up with dogs being stolen? I wonder if these people can sleep at night knowing that they have stolen someones baby. This is so sick and sad. Was the puppy microchipped? I did not read the entire thread so I thought I would ask.

Yes, right away. They are the ones that said to run an ad in the paper stating the pup is ill and needs medication. I don't really think the people that took him would care. I think it would just be for some quick cash somewhere....anywhere They could get an easy $600 cash from people who don't even WANT to ask questions

OMG! I just saw this thread! How terrible!! I can't believe how often Yorkies are being stolen!!!

Please keep us posted!

No, he wasn't microchipped. They only had him for 2 weeks. However, if he does somehow show up sometime down the road, Cowboy has been DNA'd. I feel so bad for them. My Mom actually put her on the phone with me (to give more advice on how to maybe find him) and she said he was like a baby to them (like they are to all of us) and that they can't eat and are loosing sleep. They are just so miserable

OMG... I just goes to show you, you can't take your eyes off them for a second... bad people see them and know they can make a profit real quick. Poor thing, too bad no one saw a license plate.

Oh no, gees, that's horrible. Some people. Same reason I'm so neurotic about not turning my back on Zoe in public or at a park.

[Bella's Mommy]

That is disturbing I don't understand how someone could even think to do such a thing! We are praying for a safe return.

[Beckyhebert]

This happened from a back yard ??? This is horrible... hope she is returned . We keep our backyard gate locked . Too precious to leave alone ... and unsecured .

I posted a new thread stating how it happened! I am so thrilled and want to thank EVERYONE who posted!!!!!!!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
