<p>Gosh, I hope everything is ok and as others have said, thanks for warning us all.</p>
<p> Thankfully mine are all very vocal when somone rings the doorbell etc. Somthing I was told when at dog training with Jensen this time last year, was to NOT put your dogs name on their dog tag, otherwise god forbid they were taken from the house/garden walk etc, then they would also know the dogs name and no-one would bat an eyelid!!</p>

<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>Thanks for your replies, especially to Dee, yes he is microchipped, insured, the whole hog - he's our pride and joy and we'd be devastated if we lost him through something like this. The neighbours have been really good but the fact that there was an attempted break in through a garden 5 doors down just makes us all the more worried. Much as this is Basildon these are newly built privately own houses with doctors, teachers and police living in them so it's horrifying to…</p>
<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>Thanks for your replies, especially to Dee, yes he is microchipped, insured, the whole hog - he's our pride and joy and we'd be devastated if we lost him through something like this. The neighbours have been really good but the fact that there was an attempted break in through a garden 5 doors down just makes us all the more worried. Much as this is Basildon these are newly built privately own houses with doctors, teachers and police living in them so it's horrifying to think that people this time of year are having to worry about these things. We have a lot of staffies in the neighbourhood (surprise surprise) and bless, one of my neighbours who owns Beau who is a good friend of Ollie said we could borrow him if he wanted a bit of a guard dog. I'm speaking to the police later, I don't really want to call the paper as they will want a picture, and being a local teacher I don't really want all my kids knowing my business!</p>

<p>Oh gosh!!!! great, at least, that you may have sorted the cause then!! so scary, and thanks for alerting us! Of course if somebody claiming they are from RSPCA knock the door there are other worry than asking an ID.. so its very helpful to know these things can happen :(((</p>

<p>poor Ollie, keep your eyes open and thanks again for posting!</p>

It might be a good idea to buy a Doberman that doesn't ask questions! Just kidding. ;-)<br/>
I agree with Rebecca and Dee, warn the police, the local papers and everyone in your neighbourhood. I don't think they are after Ollie, but it is wise to keep an eye on him.<br/>
<br/>
Take care,<br/>

Hi Nicky I am very aware of nasty dog thieves especially at this time of year. This is why we have alarms everywhere both on the house and in the kennels.<br />
I am very sorry to hear this has happened to you you must report it to the police and it might be an idea to contact your local newspaper,although they will stop at nothing if they wish to get a dog away from a property,<br />

I trust Ollie is microchipped just in case. When you let him out in the garden go with him over the next few days dog theft from gardens is quite common.<br />
Lets hope they will not worry you again.<br />

What a worry, Nicky. Have you considered reporting this to your local police? It may link up with other reports they've received, or they might want to do an extra patrol in your neighbourhood during the coming nights, or release a warning in your local paper to make others aware that this is going on.
