Re: Gypsies stealing dogs

Gypsies have way too many rights, the police can't touch them. They won't get involved at all with gypsies.
I just hope everyone protects there dogs, horses etc. so these gypsies don't get the chance to steal them.

Damn right! The cops are too busy sitting on their backsides dunking their shortbreads into their tea and yacking on about last night's episode of Hollyoaks!

I hope we aren't paying taxes for these people!

Re: Gypsies stealing dogs

Oh and by the way, if anybody wants some self-defense lessons, I know of a couple of very good instructors.

Whilst walking Bailey (my eight-year old Golden retriever) I've been asked a couple of times by a few people if he's for sale and the usual garble, one guy asked me if I'd let him have Bailey for £200. What on god's earth makes him think I'm going to sell my dog for £200? We paid £500 for him as a puppy and I wouldn't sell him for the all of the gold in Fort Knox!

Re: Gypsies stealing dogs

There is a gypsy site just down the road from us in a town called Wheatley.

But as far as I know they have now quite lesser interest in stealing dogs. But what can one say...!

Re: Gypsies stealing dogs

We had a problem a few years ago. Storm was a puppy and we had kaydee and Lilo aswell.

we went to a park we had never been to before and let the dogs off the lead as usual. They always come back as their recall is brilliant (until Kaydee sees a bird). They were off running having fun chasing the ball. all of a sudden 4 men appeared and started following us. They kept saying aww they are stunning. I was getting a little worried as it was just me and my Mum.

Kaydee then see a bird and chased it so of course the others followed. I looked round and the 4 men were no where to be seen so i was now really really worried.

All of a sudden Lilo started barking and whining. We ran over and the 4 men were with the dogs. They had Kaydee and storm in their arms and Lilo being a good protector was barking at them to let us know.

I know i shouldnt have but i told Lilo to get them and she went for the bloke with storm. He dropped her and then the other 1 dropped Kaydee. I called them and they came running over, All except Lilo who i think wanted to eat them. We picke up Storm and Kaydee and i told them if they didnt go Lilo would attack, They wernt backing off.

Luckily a bloke came over with 3 great danes and the men walked off.

I was terrified. I was proud of Lilo. She is not vicious but knows how to protect us and im proud that when i told her to get them she did. she didnt bite him but she let him knew that she could. She has never gone for anyone like that ever and i have no worries about her being vicious and im glad that in this instance she was or we could have lost our babies.

Needless to say i phoned the police and they didnt want to know. we have never been back to that park again

Re: Gypsies stealing dogs

Firstly,my heart goes out to Spike and his owner .RIP Little one xx

Secondly,travellers do think they have the god given right to take anything they want,even if it is someone elses.
They take horses,dogs chickens,and anything else that takes their fancy !!!
Police are worse than useless -dont want to infringe their human rights!!

What about ours???? We pay your wages,not them,majority dont know what council tax is etc.
I had the misfortune of them being a field away from my horses for 2 yrs ,and I left for peace and quiet and the novelty of not having to do a head count and check my stuff every day!!!
They have since expanded into adjacent fields ,caravans everywhere,no planning permission,whereas I have to wait for permission to put in a sand school !!!
Yes ,they will take your animals ,breed from them ,fight them ,and not give one thought to the owner who is searching for them-the only concern is to make money

Re: Gypsies stealing dogs

its always been the same my grandparents used to own a sweet shop and the gypsy kids used to come in and just take the sweets without paying my grandparents told the police numerous times and they wouldnt do anything what scares me more than ever is my little dog bo is staying with my grandma now he is gorgeous and im so scared something is going to happen to him because there are lots of gypsies in that area and my poor grandma wouldnt be able to defend herself.

Also a few months back in gamston a friend caught these kids burning 2 puppies with lighters and she threatened to call the police if they didnt let them go luckily the dogs wernt to badly hurt but 1 of them had clearly been cut with a knife who knows what would have happened if she hadnt stepped in the poor things will have been scared for life because of some youths being stupid and cruel i dont know if they were gypsies or not but it just shows how sick some people are
