My friend's elderly shih-tzu was stolen
 

My friend Brenda had her house broken into yesterday. The only thing the thief took was her elderly shih tzu who is in poor health. This is an update that I just posted on another thread:

They haven't found out anything more. Brenda thinks it is probably a worker who had been in recently doing some painting on her house. When he took Betsy (the shih tzu), he left $130 cash that was laying out in the open, a laptop and several other valuables that would've been so easy for a burglar to take. The ONLY thing missing is Betsy, and there is no way for Betsy to have gotten out of her crate & then out of the house on her own.

Betsy has severe seizures and requires her medication regularly. She also has IBS & is on a special diet, has arthritis & doesn't get around well, is hypothyroid & needs medicine for that, too. Brenda is posting pics on Craigslist, the local newspaper, around her neightborhood, etc.

Brenda has no information about this man and hasn't been able to locate anyone yet who does have info.

Betsy is a tiny little 4 pound sweetheart. Brenda takes her to work with her everyday. She was only at home alone yesterday because Brenda had a Dr. appt. Everyone, please pray for the safety of Betsy and for Brenda to find her soon.

I pray that she finds her way home. I am so scared that this could happen to me with all the very bad things happening lately around here.

I almost had a lady at a park take off with one of my dogs. she was seeking away and i seen her out the corner of my eye and stopped her she was heading toward her car! everyone loves to play with my dogs when i take them out i have 4 right now and so much was going on that she thought she could get away with one of my baby's. I don't think so. so sorry that happened that's one of the lowest things a human can do take someones dog.

How horrible for you friend. And then the baby has so many health issues. I have actually been concerned about this very thing. A couple of mine have severe health issues. Thought about getting a medical tag with some info on it. Just in case. I am so sorry. ~Joanne~
