Stolen golden , Ottawa
Our rescue got this e-mail , I had to edit some infos so if anyone knows anything about this , please pm me.
Our family dog (and my husband's hunting dog) was stolen from our yard January 22nd, just south of Ottawa. The thief pulled into our driveway, cut the fence, leashed our dog and drove away. My neighbour got a plate number, description of the vehicle and the person. Unfortunately the plate was also stolen so it lead us nowhere. Below are all the details we have and pictures of our dog. He is a 2-year golden retriever (red in color) that responds to the name Tuuka. Any help you can give us would be GREATLY appreciated or if you can lead us in a direction. Our dog's blood line has been in our family for years so it is the loss of a family member which has devastated us. Here is the information that we have: Male Golden Retriever (red in color) Approx 65 lbs 2 years old Answers to Tuuka Many Thanks |

He's beautiful I hope he is safe and someone has a keen eye on remembering his picture, to find him. Also hope he's altered so nobody uses him for breeding purposes.
That's an awful lot of trouble to go to for someone to take the dog. Maybe someone who knows the dogs ability in hunting and wanted him for that purpose themself if he's a good hunting dog?

OMG that's terrible!!
The nerve of some people, always looking for selfish gain. ![]() I don't mean to pick, but why was the dog outside unattended? I understand it was in a fenced area, but.... They should contact CBC radio in their area and get this on the air!

I don't stay out with my dogs either when it's really cold, but I'm there at a window, watching every move.
Well I guess it's a golden for ya... must be well socialized and friendly to all strangers.

Well the dog may have barked, which alerted the neighbour who took the licence plate down BUT if the dogs family wasn't home

Hmmm, that I would never dare do. Leave the dogs outside with no one home?
![]() I don't leave them tied outside a store while I'm inside either. If I need something, I go without them, if I have them, I take them home first and go back. |

A little more info
I am on a Golden list and below is a direct quote from the email we received:
"The thief pulled into our driveway, cut the fence, leashed our dog and drove away" When the thieves are blatant enough to cut through a fence I think that there is not a lot we can do to protect ourselves. I know my golden would not have barked and would get in a car (if treats were involved!) and my terrier would have had a fit the whole time. Depends on the dog, I suppose. I hope the dog was neutered and I really really hope he is found safe. This must be unbearable, as it would be for anyone whose furkid is not safe at home. |

I so hope he was neutered too.
![]() ![]() ![]() Since he was so boldly stolen by someone cutting through the chain link fence then it seems it would be either by someone who knew he was intact and wanted him for breeding purposes or by some ![]() ![]() |

Even in the freezing cold, most of the time we're out with the dogs. If they're just running out for a quick pee, I'll watch from the window, but most of the time either hubby or I are out with them. Baxter won't stay out longer than a quick pee unless one of us is out there. Bentley would, but he's the little monster that you have to keep an eye on. He loves taking the solar lights apart and tearing apart shrubs unless you're out there with him.
I sure hope they get their dog back. I would just be sick if anything like that happened to me. Cindy |

Stolem golden
Isn't it sad that the decline of society (drug trade) and the lack of morality has pet owners constantly on guard against the theft of their pets from their own vehicles and even their homes. I never even leave them in my locked car anymore, not even for a second and even though they're in a fenced yard I have to constantly check that they're ok. Hope this dog is found but he was left in a susceptible situation.

I will be praying for the safe return of your precious Tuuka. Keep his disappearance in the public view. Don't give up!

Wow, so if I am reading correctly, the "rescuer" was the thief, or part of the same organization? Thank goodness the "rescuer" muttered the Ottawa Sun comment, or this may not have been such a happy ending. Wonder how many other stolen dogs there are out there that have not been returned. I am sure we only hear of a small percentage.

So someone turned in the dog after the offers for the reward were mentioned?
Very very sly prick. I felt deep down whoever did that had it planned for a looooong time. Am happy that Tuuka is being reunited. So, out of curiosity... is he neutered or not? If he was stolen in hopes to join a puppy mill only to find out he was a nutless wonder then decided to return him?

Yeah the stolen plates kinda intrigue me. And I would soooooo be pressing criminal charges, hmmm trespassing, break and enter, theft. Then take them out back and kick the snot out of them. Yay for tuuka's parents tho.
