    This story made me so angry. It is wrong to steal someone's dog to begin with. But, in some cases it can be detrimental.

    This family is hoping that someone will return their 11 week old puppy. It was stolen when their house was robbed.

    The dog is special (well, all dogs are special). They have a special needs daughter and the puppy is being trained to be her companion. The dog and young woman have bonded. She rarely speaks but she says the dog's name. The

    I am hoping the thieves see the story on the TV, feel guilty, and return it unharmed.

    Quite a sad story. I really hate thieves. I've been home burgled twice over the years and find it very intrusive. To have something so close to you stolen such as this beautiful puppy must be so devastating.:(
    We can only hope for its return and hopefully the thieves will get what they deserve.

    Ugh!

    I hope the media attention on this will prompt the thieves to turn it in. It's rare, but we've seen it before where they feel guilty and return it to a shelter or shop anonymously so that it can be returned to the rightful owners.

    Only somebody extremely cruel could steal a dog. It's obvious that it will break owner's hearts and that the puppy will be scared and unhappy too:( It's so awful!:mad: I really hope this story will have a happy ending!

    This is a sad story. I really hope the get this puppy back. These crooks ought to be ashamed of themselves for taking this puppy. But then do crooks have any shame, in my state we actually had some people stealing from charity donation jars in convenient stores.
