In this day of age thinking about all the things that are important to you and how you can protect them from the unscrupulous can be a full time job. Often on the bottom of the list of concerns though is your dog. Not because you don't love them dearly and they mean the world to you, its you just can't phantom why anyone would want to steal a dog.
Unfortunately with the rising costs of purchasing a dog now it has opened the doors for thieves to step in and make a dishonest living. They have no difficulty stealing a dog then taking it to another city and selling it. This is a heart wrenching situation for the dog owner, and for the unsuspecting purchaser who in many cases has no idea they are buying a dog that has become stolen.
