hagar 5 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 keep a fecking good gaurd dog thats the best detterant when was a youngster i was told if a traveller wanted to buy your dog it was best sell it to him for he will return to steal it , since then i discovered training your lurchers to be wary n aggressive to people puts them right off, but you cant beat a covered steel run alarmed if possible it is a shame we have to take such measures but it is a fact of life that scummy dog thieves have been around as long as the dogs and probably always will be Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest coney catcher99 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 The best deterant is them not knowing where you live and what you got. Simple as that. your right there mate people are far to open on these forums posting pics etc less people know the better if no one posted pic and that on hear then the site would only nead a general talk section thats what think aney way i cant see the reason for posting pictures all people want is praist "nice looking dog mate" "good pics mate" all that bollocks you r suppose to be adults grow up.

Edd_Wiltshire 9 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Hi All, New here so i will tread carefully! I have a whippet but as far as i am concerned all dog owners are in the same boat really. I don’t think posting pics of your dogs will put you at risk; just don’t tell people where you live. If they can link your address to your dogs then you are putting yourself at risk big time. These thieves need to be caught out and taught a lesson that’s for sure. If someone was a suspected thief then maybe try and organise a trap and sort it out that way. Walking dogs just at night may be suitable for some people but for others it’s impossible and why should good honest people turn their lives upside down in fear of thieving scumbags who steal dogs? Also what do you folks do if you are selling dogs? People automatically have your address, get to scope out you house/security and will probably find out what your job is so they can guess when you will be out etc. I guess that’s why some people arrange to meet at the side of the road; I always thought this was dodgy but know it seems like common sense! Also has anyone thought that Animal rights may be behind some of this? What with scrap metal prices so high and general burglary still at a high level i would of thought that Pikeys have bigger fish to fry? Just a few thoughts from a newbie!

Poacher2, dead right, lads should shout it loud when they get dogs back, where they got from and who. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
