Over 1,000 dogs are stolen in Dallas, Texas every year. Lots of pits and Huskies, I have had three Huskies stolen by a known dog thief Pablo Palomo this year. He sold them before the police could get there and I could not get them back. He steals 50 dogs a year himself. We need to put a stop to dog thief. Brad Kirby lostdogsofdallas com

I think that is just plain senseless! That anyone would steal dogs or anyones pets just for money, it is just sick!These people need to be caught and sentenced good! The law needs to crack down!
