Do NOT leave your dog unattended!

Posted by Megan on 31 March 2010

There have been too many incidents recently of dogs being stolen outside of super markets and restaurants in San Francisco after being left unattended by their owners.

Recently, there was one incident, which got lots of play in the press, where a sweet middle aged mutt named Jojo was stolen from outside the Castro Safeway. After over a week of being missing he turned up in Marin after he was SOLD to a family. SF Animal Care and Control say that one dog per week is STOLEN in SF.

Please do not take your dog “out on the town” if you do not plan on being by their side at all times. Most dogs, well trained or not, feel very unsafe and insecure when tied up and left alone outside a public place while the owners are shopping and eating. I promise, your dog would rather be home, safe and warm, as opposed to outside cold and scared, or stolen!

“They are friendly and reliable, their prices are extremely reasonable, and they treat my dog as if she was theirs.”
