Stolen dogs

[chascmp]

i would be going back to same area and just let them HELP themselves again with me watching and then i would have a lil STING waiting for them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if they got away with it once, they now think "I am smarter than anyone who would treat hounds that way"

oh what a suprise i would have for them, better NOT come to Mississippi and mess with hounds!!!!

What the heck are people thinking. These people need to be smacked up side the head!! Matt......was your tailgate up or down when you came out of the store? Glad you got your dogs back....

I know Matt, that tail gate is usually up when traveling!!

[Joeyman]

glad you found them Matt. thats great news.

Happy to hear the good news Matt.

Glad you found them. We had some stolen years back and ironically they showed back up at our kennel a few days after rabbit season ended. One ended up being our GRHBCH Daisy female.

Glad you got your dogs back. I always put locks on my dog box when traveling and i also keep locks on all my kennels doors. I lock my truck when its not being drove and lock the house when i go out side. I do all of this and live on a big farm out in the country. A ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

locking tail gates are the cats meow. i use mine all the time when running into a store when hounds are in the box. you could still get them out but it sure would be alot of work and i don't know many thieves that will work that hard.

i will be locking up from now on, we all think it will never happen to us.
And buy the way nice web site you have.

Speaking of thieves this was on the local news the other night. This guy came into a store that sells chain saws with a baggy pair of pants on and stuck a small chain saw down his pants and started running our of the door. If he had not ran away he might not have got caught.LOL The news also reported this one. A man came into a convenient store and told the teller to give him the cash. It was early in the morning the store had just opened and their was very little money in the cash register. So the thief locks the teller up in the back room and started waiting on customers to get him more money to steal. A customer recognize's him and calls the law.

It makes no sense to me that someone would steal Matt's dogs only to take them to a shelter. If this was done by an anti or someone thinking having them closed up in a dog box was being cruel what in the Hell-o did they think would be done to them in a shelter? I suppose they think they get down stuffed pillow bedding, "T" bone dinners and Bon-Bon snacks for life! What idiots roam our streets. Matt you sure you weren't at Wal-Mart as I've seen some of those Wal-Mart people e-mails?

There may be an organized campaign to steal dogs from dog boxes. I was at a field trial today and a friend, Adam Keith, who was visibly upset, said he had dogs taken from his truck in a shopping center parking lot. He knows where the dogs are and he has to go to court to recover them. He needs a lawyer because the people who took them are claiming the dogs were being abused. The lawyer wants $3000 up front to take the case to court and the guy is really hurting.

Matt's dogs were taken in Indiana and these dogs were taken from Adam Keith in Virginia. Sounds like an organized effort to me. It will pay all of us to make sure our trucks and dog boxes are locked at all times and especially if we are running into a store or service station, even for a moment. We should also be on the lookout for people pulling this stunt on anyone with dogs in a box.

Prepare yourself
KNOW your Rights!!

HOW can an Entity Such as the HUMANE SOCIETY of THE US have? they are a lobbing Organization Only!! they are NOT the HUMANE SOCIETY themselves...They have NO LEGAL AUTHORITY...

The HSUS provides resources for local humane societies and operates a network of direct care centers for animals around the country.

It does not run local shelters or oversee local animal care and control agencies.

the group primarily functions as a lobbying and education organization.

The HSUS has no affiliation with or control over local humane societies.

The HSUS has NO LEGAL AUTHORITY And unless they have a warrant or are Accompanied by the ASPCA or USDA and ONLY if those entities have Authority Within your State or jurisdiction and Local law Enforcement With a PROPER Warrant!! then just tell them to Go Away!! stand on your fourth amendment rights and demand a warrant to let them on your property. Do not think just because they Say they are HSUS or the Humane Society that they have a right to come onto your property. And the fifth amendment protects you from having to give them any information also.
So I say let em Come but they better come well armed AND with the proper Authorities or I will Enact My RIGHT to Defend person and property..

4th Amendment
