DOGS

Most stolen dog breeds according to research conducted in the UK

Dog theft is a worrying phenomenon that is becoming increasingly common, and popular dog breeds often become the target of thieves. Although the motives for theft can vary, from money to emotional blackmail, the result is always the same: profound pain for the owners and the poor kidnapped animal.

The security company 'ADT' recently published its annual report on dog theft in the UK, analysing police data to identify the most stolen breeds of dog.

This study revealed that certain dog breeds are particularly vulnerable to theft, and in this article we will explore the most stolen dog breeds.

Owners of these breeds should be aware of the risks and take the necessary measures to protect their four-legged friends.
