Thank Heavens That Paula Hates Strangers!

omg that's awful, clever girl, how bout some cctv fakes by the gate incase the woman comes back

 

fake cctv sounds like a good idea, or maybe covering the gaps in the gate with wood, so no one can see in through it :b

sounds like a lucky escape to me, scary though, i think i probabily would be calling the police about it to, just incase they come back

 

:rant: bloody dog thieves paulas a lucky girl :sweating: dun think anybody would try get my gate open once my lot start barking at em lol sound like a pack of savages if anybody try my gate :-

 

Well done Paula :thumbsup:

 

oh what a good good girl some people really are sickening :angry: might be worth telling the police, its worth putting up with any laughter if this information might save a dog from being stolen, or get one who has been stolen home sooner with a description :unsure:

 

I think you've had a lucky escape and thank God your gate is properly locked and not just on a latch. The woman can't have been after anything but your dog - how horrible.

My daugher and I took Gracie to a fun show some weeks ago, wandered round with her and she won a class. A lad in his early 20's took an interest in her, very complimentary and quizzed me about her breeding and whether we coursed her. It was quite a big event but everywhere we walked we bumped into him and his friends and it just became too much of a coincidence. In the end I was so spooked that we packed up and went home.

 

Glad nothing bad came of it. Thank goodness she barked!

Your house sounds great by the way! :b

 

Can we have a description of this middle aged woman ,who was after your dog please .

 

i had something weird like this happen a while back.

I was walking Digit in the private park (which is really quite small and securely fenced all the way round) He had got a little bit ahead of me and when I turned the corner a man was walking towards him with a lead in his hand.

When he saw me, he stuffed the lead in his pocket and turned away without speaking.

Now, like you I have no proof whatsoever that he was trying to steal my dog but:

why would he be walking towards him with a lead (the park is so small and secure that any dog in there is likely to belong to someone)?

if he was just being altruistic, not knowing that the park is fenced and thinking that Digit was lost, why would he furtively stuff the lead in his pocket when he saw me?

why would he not know that the park is secure - he would have had to use a key to get in?

I also didn't report it as I didn't think my 'funny feeling' about a man acting oddly near my dog would be any kind of priority for the police..........but try as I have, I can't think of any reasonable explaination for his behaviour (except for the obvious conclusion that he was trying to steal Dij)

and I think it's the same with Paula - if the woman had any kind of benign interest in your dog, she would have chatted to you when you came out of the house wouldn't she? I know I often talk to people's dogs (particularly if I spy lovely whippets through fences) but if I got copped i would immediately be explaining that I was just saying hello and be saying what a lovely dog you have there ..... getting into a car without a word confirms her motives as far as i'm concerned.

I think you've had a very lucky escape - thank goodness Paula doesn't go up to strangers eh!

 

The wrong sort of person as described here need ,smashing up no two ways about it .

 

People stand and watch others scream help whilst they are getting mugged in the street .We all have to stop this in our own world .Keep the faith and dont have it ! we will get there before they ruin the planet .

 

What a shame you didnt get the car reg number.

Very scary for you , mine dont run up to strangers either, so I have no fear of any one taking one of the gang

Years ago I was at an exeption show when some one showed an interest in my greyound Barty . I gave him a `wrong`tel number ` Just to get him to leave me alone :lol:

If they ask questions I tell them they dont chase and /or are very slow -_-
