I don't like this one bit. I agree, get the authorities involved.

No, it's not. But you can alert area vets to the dog possibly being stolen. The dog has to go in for a visit at some point.
That's a good point but I've know plenty of people that don't take their dogs to the vet unless something happens to them.

It sure wouldn't hurt though.
If the intent of the theif is to steal it, then sell it to another individual, the new individual would probably take it to a vet for an initial check-up and shots.

Though if the intent is just to steal it to keep, then that type of person probably isn't real big on vet visits either.

it's an adorable small black dog that looks just like toto from the wizard of oz. i got him from a rescue group who never gave me the papers on him (so I don't know if he is implanted). i've already called animal control and they don't have him.

i am making posters now, going to get them printed and when i get home i am calling the police.

my dad's exact words, when i told him butch was missing: "Uh oh, that is exactly the kind of dog someone would want to steal..." I thought he was crazy...

Wow, that is horrible. Good luck Doc...
Hopefully Butch will escape from his captors & get home safe. Dogs are amazing. Keep the faith.

People do steal them. When I was very young we had our English sheepdog stolen from our backyard in St. Louis. I have a recollection of their being a time when I was a kid that people in the StL area were nervous about leaving their dogs unattended in the yard for too long because of fears about them being stolen. I remember one reason, don't know if it was just baseless rumor, being that people stole them to sell to research laboratories.
