| Crosspost - Stolen Parson Terriers in NC I received this from Yorkie rescue *****PLEASE CROSSPOST - STOLEN DOGS IN CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA***** This is one of the most tragic days of my life. We got up at 5 AM this morning in Charlotte at the Motel 6 to find someone had broken into my truck and stolen Tyke (CH Posey Canyon Storm Watch) and his son Desi. They took the dogs and the crates, the food bag and left the back of the truck open. We called the police immediately and there were 5 or 6 cop cars at the motel in less than 10 minutes. That area is an area of crack heads we were told, but you would never know it when you look around. The motel was full of dog show people. Two male Russells with no collars and no one who knows how to handle them spells death for my two boys. Turning out 2 males together will be death for the one or the other eventually. Turing them off leash to empty is death for both of them. I am terrified if they live they will be sold to a pitbull fighting ring to be used as bait. Someone spotted a beige car about 2 AM and the driver had a dog crate in his lap or beside it with another one in the back and a passenger. They were black. The odds of getting these boys back or even that Desi is alive right now is minimal. I can't even begin to tell you how painful this is. Tyke is not replaceable. His dam is spayed. He is the first male since the death of my beloved David that gave us hope, began to fill our homes with top quality terriers with the most wonderful temperaments we've ever seen. Tyke sired Susan Reaney's CH Emerald Fox In Vogue and the male that Claudia Sprague and I co-own Falling Branch Mr. Balou who took the major all 4 days in Portland and finished that weekend. He is the sire of my sister's Falling Branch Skywalker who has been shown 4 times with WD and BW 3 of those 4 times. And Deis is not replaceable either. His sire is gone. Tyke is the best producing stud dog I have ever owned. Beyond what he produces as a stud dog he is so sweet and snuggly and he won't understand what is happening and where I am. He is very bonded to me. These dogs don't know crack heads or mistreatment. The motel was using a security guard that isn't their regular one and they didn't even know his name. The Charlotte police were mortified that the Motel 6 was completely unconcerned and didn't even know the name of the security guard they were using. Some security guard. The police were wonderful and I know they will do all they can do with limited manpower and crimes they consider to be so much more severe. One of the female police started crying too. I understand that dogs to a police force don't measure up to murder, rapes, assault etc. but to me these dogs are as much my family as my siblings. We were told to contact Crime Stoppers in Charlotte and perhaps they will get the media to cover it. Susan Reaney, who was thinking better than I was, found out where the closest flea market is and headed out there to see if the people who stole the dogs might be there trying to sell them. I pray she finds them. Susan is the co-owner of both Tyke and Desi and so she has as much legal power to take them as I do if they are found. We took a few photos of Desi, the 9 month old male pup, this weekend. I believe Lynn only got 3 photos of him but I will post them when she retrieves them from her camera. I'll post a photo of Tyke in this post. The black spot on Tyke's topline goes down about 4 inches on the other side. Tyke is 12 1/2 inches tall and weighs about 14 pounds. Desi is a tri color with a black saddle on his back and a tri head. His markings are very distinctive. He is 13 1/4" and weighs about 13 pounds. Please, I beg you to cross post this to every list and every message board that you frequent. If you know anyone in the Charlotte, NC area please contact them. I am beyond devastated. We are offering a substantial reward for the safe return of these dogs. I have photos of both Tyke and Desi on the front of my website. For those of you in the Charlotte, NC area or who know veterinarians, rescue people, the location of flea markets etc. if you will notify these people they can see photos of my stolen boys on the front of my website we will be eternally grateful. Anyone who lives in that area if you will print flyers and distribute them at flea markets, vet's offices, convenience stores in the area or any other place that makes sense I will gladly reimburse you for your time and monetary expenses. These are stolen dogs. The police seem to believe that a reward (we are starting with $1500 per dog and were told NOT to offer more than that by the police for whatever reason which I don't understand) will bring the dogs home faster than anything else. I pray they are right. Susan managed to talk to Fox Charlotte TV and they will air the story on the 10 PM news. We are going to call the other television stations in Charlotte. If any of you have any connections or pull with TV stations in Charlotte please, please ask them to run the photos of these dogs with the reward and our telephone numbers and email addresses which are on the front page of my website at www.fallingbranch.com and on the front of Susan's website at www.emeraldfoxkennel.com Again, please crosspost. We want news about these boys everywhere so that we hopefully can help in getting them back. If anyone knows anything about these dogs, please contact me at EverlastJRT@aol.com, and PLEASE CROSSPOST.

| sad I am very sorry for the two lost JR's..I would like to ask the owner why these dogs were left in the truck overnight in the first place?? They could have just as easily slept inside the motel rooms in their crates..am I being too harsh? Quite frankly, I would get no sleep worrying about someone doing exactly what they did if Kate and Emee sleep in the car last week while we were in the motel. |

| I probably will never hear if they are found as with CROSSPOSTS you just try and place them in as many groups as you can. I really did struggle on why they were in the car but felt it was more important to get the word out.

| They were found. If you look at the links she tells you to look at for pictures of the dog it has a little paragraph at the top saying her dogs were returned to her. Glad there was a happy ending!
