I FOUND MAYA YES!! Thus morning I went out to find her snd I did! I bumped into the guy with her!!! I'm soooo happy and grateful for all the support we got yesterday! Thank you to everyone!!!

[Huggers]

gosh so what was his story?

[Sespana]

He was trying to say that the dog was lost and he found it and was looking for her owner. That is a lie as in the CCTV camera we can clearly see that he unties her and takes her

Having been a dog owner, I would never tie my dogs up if I went into a shop. Years ago, a dog owner friend, tied his lurcher up outside Red Apples whist he got a paper - 2/3 minutes later found dog had been stolen. He mounted a big campaign. leaflets, posters, newspaper stories, even got onto the local news on TV. Cost him hundreds of pounds as general public contacted him as to possible sightings all over the country. Several months later, the Surrey Police contacted him as they found an empty van will several dogs abandoned on a motorway slip road. His dog was there, another dog whose owner could not be found, was later adopted by him as he had formed an attachment to the lurcher.

I am afraid that most weeks when I go to Sainsburys in DKH, I see a dog tied up at the entrance, very often they look as though they are pedigrees.

What fabulous news.. What was his 'excuse' and did he hand your dog over without problem? 🍾

[Blah Blah]

I am so pleased for you. And just pure luck I guess to bump into Maya and the thief! Maya is hoome. That's all that matters.

[There's also a thread in the General section which mentions a third-party report of two other dogs recently disappeared from Sainsburys: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1786505.]

I worked in Sainsburys and used to tell dog owners not to leave their dogs tied up outside, There is a big dog fighting ring in this area and this is one way of them getting bait for the dogs. I know it is not nice to put this up here but please everyone think before you leave your beloved animal outside without supervision there are some very nasty people out there.

Do the police know about the 'big dog fighting ring in this area'?

Turtle, I will contact our SNT and ask. It sounds dreadful.
