Exactly Some scumbag walked onto my uncles property took his beloved shitzhu. WHICH BTW. WAS MICROCHIPPED !!!! My Uncle. Contacted the humane society to see if pup had been picked up then. He gets a call from someone from his vets office telling him his dog had been brought in for a “EXAM” .. vet recognized the dog immediately… vet did the exam then contacted my uncle Uncle called the person who had his dog .. they told him they’d only return it to him IF HE INESSENCE. PAID A RANSOM. THEY DEMANDED $5K. Uncle called police police showed up at DOG NAPOERS HOUSE. TOOK THE DOG HANDED IT GO MY UNCLE AND ARRESTED THE THEIVES… My uncle…. Being a Kibd Christian man chose to not Prosecute. BUT….. THE DA CHARGED THRM AND THRY WENT TO COUNTY LOCK UP FOR SIX MONTHS…. Then. They were ordered to in-patient Trtmnt facility. For addiction to heroine and who knows whst else ? If I were you. I would call the police and report the Theft of your brothers dog. That’s Ransom ie dog napping aCRIME !!!
