Up until recently i had been ignorant to the 'puggle' thing.. but a trend has to really be 'trendy' for me to take notice.

It's a CNN video.

Guess not many of you watched the video... i just thought some of you would find it interesting how the puppies are kept int the store... (security wise), as if this was not an incident waiting to happen.

My ancient computer would need a major upgrade to show videos. :(

LOL... i thought that might be the case JG... lol... and it is impossibly to show on dial up... too bad.

JG, a man walked into a store and stole a puggle (which cost $1,300.00 in the states!).  He reached over the floor cages, similiar to what you would store a rabbit in, and scooped the puggle up and left the store.  The reporter cites how it's a must have dog kind of thing.  Just interesting... (to date the puppy has not been returned).

Thieves bring puggle back.

Boohoo is all I have to say about a burglary at a store selling these poor puppies that have been raised like battery chickens and then shoved in what amount to prison cells for the gormless public to freely poke and prod. I know two wrongs don't make a right, but the only victim in this is the puppy and the thousands like it raised like a cash crop to pander to vain stupid people who buy dogs like they would a Prada handbag. Oh dear, if the pup hadn't been returned the stupid shop owner would have been hit in the wallet for a few hundred quid. The puppies she merchandises are like babies my eye!
