That is scary. We have our microchip and we are always vigilant. Have a serene Sunday and let us all have some big easy today.

Earl has his microchip, we have our vigilance and he has his collar with his info tag and microchip tag. I remember posting like HECK about this everywhere this time last year… and completely forgot this year! *Slaps self over the hand. Dear. I will have to post about it soon! Thanks for the reminder! PTA is a very important issue.

It so important to be aware and keep all info uptodate incase something does happen
ReplyDeleteI never leave my dogs unattended in our yard, because there have been a few dog thefts in my town. It is scary, sad and disgusting all at the same time. And it needs to be taken seriously as well!
ReplyDeleteThanks for helping raise awareness to this today!

This is great wake up call for dog parents here in the US, as well! This is awful! As much as we want to, we can no longer live with a mind-set that all people are good people, especially when it comes to the safety of our animals! :-(
ReplyDeleteThis was so helpful to read about, we really didn't realize what a problem this was :-(
ReplyDeleteThat is so sad that someone would steal another persons dog. It is so cool that the U.K. sets aside a week to call attention to the problem!
