A litter of five, six week old staffy puppies stolen from a house in Nuneaton.Every day it seems like dogs are being stolen .Do you think it's to order or what ?

Hi Sue,

I think most dogs that are stolen , are infact stolen to order , sad yes , but i think this is fast becomming a fact.

HELEN.

i think dogs like staffys may be stolen for dog fighting purposes.

Thanks for the warning Sue

Fifty thousand dogs (probably an under estimate) go missing in the UK every year. Many are stolen to order. Dog fighting is on increase, and these dogs fetch a lot of money. I do not know what happens to many of them. Some will be used to breed from, but what about the one's that are speyed and castrated, you never hear of them turning up again do you? It was Border Collies some months ago being stolen in numbers. Sad when our dogs are not safe.
I think it is the worst thing that could happen, the not knowing would be awful.
