When your a THIEF!!!!

This isn't like they stole "just" a lead or "just" a hobble. THey STOLE a dog and I'm sure 99% of the people on this board consider their dogs part of their family. They needed to have the law called if that's what it took to get them back. Maybe something like this will help them to realize that every action has a consequence. If this costs them some jobs along the way, the lesson will stick even more. I don't wish bad things on anyone but this is a mistake these boys will have to live with and hopefully learn from. I believe the situation was handled as it should. Glad you got your dog back.
