a couple of years ago we had 2 lurchers stolen from our rescue centre.Some gypsies were hanging around the centre all day and broke in at night,even though we have 5 livein members of staff,with a direct view down the yard they still managed to steal them.We managed to get one back after they handed him into battersea but the other one was never recovered.They were both due to go to new homes as well.We regualrly get gypsies in eyeing up the lurchers and greyhounds,needless to say security has been stepped up.
