Dogs being stolen…For what ?
This morning on Corks 96fm it was announced that there was a blue hiace van going around Cork, trying to pick up dogs.
There are a few reasons why you would think people are cruising around in vans stealing dogs.
Firstly, they have orders already in place for certain breeds of pedigree dogs.
Secondly, they are stealing them so they themselves can breed from the dogs, and sell on the resulting litters.
And finally, they are being stolen to be used as bait dogs in the horrendous world that is organised dog fighting
No matter what the reason, stealing a person or families dog / dogs is a horrendous crime, and having been on the receiving end, I can talk from experience.
All the more reason then, that when interested in buying a pure bred pedigree dog, that you follow the correct channels as per the Advice section found on the home page of Pedigreedogs.ie, especially the first four.
If you don’t follow these guidelines, you can’t be sure that the dog or pup that you go to see in the near future, is the direct result of one of these crimes being committed this very day
Be vigilant, and make sure your dogs are as best protected against these horrible people as possible, and make sure your dogs Microchip is registered with the relevant bodies
